Kif5c - kinesin family member 5C Gene

Also Known as Khc; KINN; NKHC; NKHC2

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 16574

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; Apolipoprotein receptor binding activity; and plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Involved in mRNA transport. Acts upstream of or within motor neuron axon guidance. Located in several cellular components, including axonal growth cone; ciliary rootlet; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; nervous system; nose; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with Other brain malformations 2 and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human KIF5C (Kinesin family member 5C).
