Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables dynein light chain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in vesicle transport along microtubule. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including axon cytoplasm; recycling endosome; and spindle pole. Predicted to be part of cytoplasmic dynein complex. Predicted to colocalize with piccolo-bassoon transport vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; limb; peripheral nervous system ganglion; and skeletal musculature. Orthologous to human DYNC1I1 (dynein cytoplasmic 1 intermediate chain 1).
