Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable microtubule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within establishment of spindle orientation. Located in ciliary basal body; ciliary rootlet; and mitotic spindle. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SPAG5 (sperm associated antigen 5).
