Shtn1 - shootin 1

Enables kinesin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including endoplasmic reticulum polarization; positive regulation of neuron migration; and regulation of establishment of cell polarity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of neuron migration. Located in several cellular components, including axonal growth cone; perikaryon; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Part of microtubule associated complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; lower urinary tract; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SHTN1 (shootin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
