Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable dynein light intermediate chain binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and microtubule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including early endosome to late endosome transport; endosome to lysosome transport; and protein localization to perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be part of FHF complex and HOPS complex. Predicted to be active in centrosome and cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nose; respiratory system; and skin. Orthologous to human HOOK2 (hook microtubule tethering protein 2).
