Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables dynein intermediate chain binding activity and protein domain specific binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cilium organization; mitocytosis; and positive regulation of non-motile cilium assembly. Located in cytoskeleton; cytosol; and membrane. Part of cytoplasmic dynein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; liver; lung; node; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human DYNLL1 (dynein light chain LC8-type 1).
