The encoded protein is characterized by an N-terminal motor domain a coiled-coil stalk domain and a C-terminal WD-40 repeat domain. This protein may be involved in microtubule dependent transport. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles-1. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: N/A |WD40| |Kinesin| |kinesin complex| |microtubule motor activity| |ATPase activity| |microtubule binding| |microtubule-based movement| |microtubule| |microtubule-based process| |ATP binding| |movement of cell or subcellular component| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp390|Pifithrin-alpha 20μM R07 exp390]]|-1.97| |[[:results:exp113|1-Methyl-nicotinamide-chloride 1000μM R03 exp113]]|1.7| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
