gene: klp-20 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables microtubule motor activity. Involved in microtubule-based movement. Part of axonemal heterotrimeric kinesin-II complex. Expressed in ciliated neurons; distal tip cell; head; touch receptor neurons; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in silicosis. Is an ortholog of human KIF3A (kinesin family member 3A).
