Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; calmodulin binding activity; and tubulin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment of mitotic spindle orientation; negative regulation of centriole replication; and nervous system development. Located in centrosome and mitotic spindle pole. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Used to study microcephaly. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Seckel syndrome; microcephaly; and primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 3. Orthologous to several human genes including CDK5RAP2 (CDK5 regulatory subunit associated protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
