Summary
Enables kinesin binding activity and microtubule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within axo-dendritic transport. Located in several cellular components, including ciliary rootlet; motile cilium; and neuron projection. Is expressed in cerebellum interpositus nucleus; deep cerebellar nucleus; dentate nucleus; fastigial nucleus; and vestibular nucleus. Orthologous to human KLC3 (kinesin light chain 3).

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.
