Summary
Enables several functions, including dynein intermediate chain binding activity; guanyl ribonucleotide binding activity; and importin-alpha family protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mineralocorticoid stimulus; hippocampus development; and spermatid development. Located in several cellular components, including male germ cell nucleus; manchette; and sperm flagellum. Part of nuclear pore. Used to study sciatic neuropathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human RAN (RAN, member RAS oncogene family). [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.
