Atcay - ATCAY kinesin light chain interacting caytaxin Gene

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 362826

Summary

Predicted to enable Kinesin binding activity. Involved in mitochondrion distribution and neuron projection development. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; neuron projection terminus; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Used to study dystonia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Cayman type cerebellar ataxia and cerebellar ataxia. Orthologous to human ATCAY (ATCAY Kinesin light chain interacting caytaxin).
