About Kif21b

Summary

Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; microtubule binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule-based movement. Predicted to be located in cell projection; cytoplasmic vesicle; and Cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of Kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in microtubule. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; and neural retina. Orthologous to human KIF21B (Kinesin family member 21B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
