Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable dynein intermediate chain binding activity; dynein light intermediate chain binding activity; and minus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in cilium movement involved in cell motility. Predicted to be located in cilium; cytoplasm; and microtubule. Predicted to be part of inner dynein arm. Predicted to be active in 9+2 motile cilium. Is expressed in choroid invagination; diencephalon roof plate; metencephalon part of 4th ventricle choroid plexus; olfactory epithelium; and pharynx epithelium. Orthologous to human DNAH12 (dynein axonemal heavy chain 12).
