Summary: Enables calmodulin binding activity. Involved in regulation of meiotic cell cycle. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gamete generation; maintenance of centrosome location; and nervous system development. Located in cytoplasm; microtubule cytoskeleton; and midbody. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; nervous system; and perichondrium. Used to study microcephaly. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in microcephaly; primary autosomal recessive microcephaly; primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 5; and visual epilepsy. Orthologous to human ASPM (assembly factor for spindle microtubules). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
Expression: Biased expression in CNS E11.5 (RPKM 6.2), liver E14 (RPKM 4.0) and 12 other tissues See more

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.
