Summary: Enables beta-tubulin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell growth involved in cardiac muscle cell development; negative regulation of glycine import across plasma membrane; and ovulation. Located in cytoplasm; cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; and neuron projection. Biomarker of bladder disease (multiple); glomerulosclerosis; hypertension; liver cirrhosis; and opioid abuse. Orthologous to human RGS2 (regulator of G protein signaling 2). [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.
