Pcnt - pericentrin

Predicted to enable molecular adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and positive regulation of intracellular protein transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; mitotic spindle organization; and neuron migration. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cis-Golgi network; intercellular bridge; and microtubule organizing center. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II. Orthologous to human PCNT (pericentrin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
