About KIF21A

Cytogenetic location: 12q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:39,293,228-39,443,120 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 287 orthologues, 41 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 25.3), kidney (RPKM 9.6) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the KIF4 subfamily of kinesin-like motor proteins. The encoded protein is characterized by an N-terminal motor domain a coiled-coil stalk domain and a C-terminal WD-40 repeat domain. This protein may be involved in microtubule dependent transport. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles-1. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
