Summary
Predicted to enable gamma-tubulin binding activity. Predicted to contribute to microtubule minus-end binding activity. Predicted to be involved in meiotic cell cycle; microtubule cytoskeleton organization; and mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in recycling endosome. Predicted to be part of gamma-tubulin complex. Predicted to be active in centrosome and equatorial microtubule organizing center. Is expressed in several structures, including brain ventricular layer and egg cylinder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in microcephaly and chorioretinopathy 3. Orthologous to human TUBGCP4 (tubulin gamma complex associated protein 4). [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.

RNA

  1. NR_077245.3 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate splice site in an internal exon and lacks an alternate segment in the 3' region, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
