Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Involved in axonemal microtubule depolymerization and plus-end specific microtubule depolymerization. Located in cilium. Orthologous to human KIF19 (kinesin family member 19). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation display partial postnatal lethality, hydroencephaly, female infertility, oviduct obstruction, increased motile cilium length and impaired motile cilium movement.
