    Summary
    Predicted to enable microtubule binding activity and microtubule stabilizing activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule polymerization; negative regulation of non-motile cilium assembly; and plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell division; microtubule cytoskeleton organization; and microtubule sliding. Located in axon. Orthologous to human MAP4 (microtubule associated protein 4).

    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.
