Dynlt2b - dynein light chain Tctex-type 2B

Predicted to enable dynein intermediate chain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cilium organization; regulation of cilium assembly; and regulation of intraciliary retrograde transport. Predicted to be part of cytoplasmic dynein complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Predicted to colocalize with ciliary base and cytoskeleton. Is expressed in embryo and forelimb bud. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy. Orthologous to human DYNLT2B (dynein light chain Tctex-type 2B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
