Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is the non-motor subunit of kinesin-2 complex, and forms a heterotrimer with two members of the kinesin superfamily of proteins that together form a microtubule plus-end directed translocator that plays an important role in intracellular transport, mitosis, and cell-cell adhesion. This protein contains multiple armadillo repeats involved in protein binding, and may serve as an adaptor to regulate binding of cargo with the motor proteins. Conditional disruption of this gene in mouse neural precursor cells caused a tumor-like phenotype and defective organization of the neuroepithelium thought to be the result of altered N-cadherin subcellular localization. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]

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.
