About Tubb4b

Summary

Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of Cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule Cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cell cycle. Located in myelin sheath. Is expressed in brain ependyma; epithelial layer of oviduct; nasal epithelium; respiratory system epithelium; and seminiferous tubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis with early-onset deafness. Orthologous to human TUBB4B (tubulin beta 4B class IVb).
