Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including actin binding activity; calcium ion binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within inner ear development. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including dendrite; neuronal cell body membrane; and perikaryon. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Is expressed in ganglia; salivary gland primordium; and telencephalon.

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.
