Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and GTPase activity. Involved in nervous system development; non-motile cilium assembly; and smoothened signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within dorsal/ventral pattern formation; heart looping; and left/right axis specification. Located in several cellular components, including 9+0 non-motile cilium; axoneme; and ciliary membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including chordamesoderm; embryo mesenchyme; gonad; heart and pericardium; and neural ectoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Joubert syndrome 8. Orthologous to human ARL13B (ARF like GTPase 13B).
