About KIF13A

Cytogenetic location: 6p22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:17,759,126-17,987,635 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 204 orthologues and 41 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 12.6), thyroid (RPKM 10.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the Kinesin family of microtubule-based motor proteins that function in the positioning of endosomes. This family member can direct mannose-6-phosphate receptor-containing vesicles from the trans-Golgi network to the plasma membrane, and it is necessary for the steady-state distribution of late endosomes/lysosomes. It is also required for the translocation of FYVE-CENT and TTC19 from the centrosome to the midbody during cytokinesis, and it plays a role in melanosome maturation. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
