Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, cilium. Cell projection, dendrite.

Target Protein Families

TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily, Kinesin family

Target Background

Predicted to enable microtubule binding activity and plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in anterograde dendritic transport of neurotransmitter receptor complex and cell projection organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within microtubule-based process; protein-containing complex localization; and vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to be located in microtubule cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of intraciliary transport particle B and kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in cilium; microtubule cytoskeleton; and neuron projection.
