About Kif21a

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; ankyrin repeat binding activity; and microtubule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule-based movement. Predicted to be located in cytosol and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of Kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in microtubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles 1. Orthologous to human KIF21A (Kinesin family member 21A).
