Dynlt1b - dynein light chain Tctex-type 1B

Enables G-protein beta-subunit binding activity and GTP-dependent protein binding activity. Involved in establishment of mitotic spindle orientation; negative regulation of neurogenesis; and regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade and positive regulation of neuron projection development. Located in several cellular components, including cell body; growth cone; and photoreceptor inner segment. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; otocyst; and retina. Orthologous to human DYNLT1 (dynein light chain Tctex-type 1).
