Summary
Enables several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; WW domain binding activity; and plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cell population proliferation and positive regulation of cytokinesis. Located in several cellular components, including microtubule cytoskeleton; midbody; and nuclear lumen. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, May 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
