Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is an intracellular motor protein thought to transport organelles along microtubules. The encoded protein is required for kidney development. Elevated levels of this protein have been found in some breast and colorectal cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
