    Summary
    Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; microtubule binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including microtubule bundle formation; midbody abscission; and regulation of cytokinesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein transport. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cleavage furrow; intercellular bridge; and midbody. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in microtubule and nucleus. Is expressed in 4-cell stage embryo; brain ventricular layer; genitourinary system; and stomach. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in restrictive cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human KIF20A (kinesin family member 20A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    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.
