Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and microtubule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule-based movement and regulation of axonogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytosol; microvillus; and paranode region of axon. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and microtubule. Is expressed in cortical plate; dorsal root ganglion; glossopharyngeal ganglion; and trigeminal ganglion. Orthologous to human KIF13B (kinesin family member 13B). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit increased circulating cholesterol and factor VIII levels. [provided by MGI curators] |
