Description
Predicted to have GTP binding activity. Involved in cilium assembly. Predicted to localize to cytoplasm and microtubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 6 and torsion dystonia 4. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to several human genes including TUBB4B (tubulin beta 4B class IVb).
