Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable kinesin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in protein transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within microtubule-based movement. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; heart; hemolymphoid system gland; and lung. Orthologous to human KTN1 (kinectin 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted null mutation or a floxed allele exhibit no discernable phenotype; mice are viable and fertile up to one year of age. [provided by MGI curators] |
