Primary Identifier | MGI:1098264 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 16553 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables microtubule motor activity. Involved in Golgi to plasma membrane protein transport and plus-end-directed vesicle transport along microtubule. Located in trans-Golgi network membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; central nervous system; future brain; sensory organ; and tooth. Orthologous to human KIF13A (kinesin family member 13A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased anxiety. [provided by MGI curators] |
