Kif14 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and PDZ domain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; brain development; and regulation of cell cycle process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of integrin activation; regulation of Rap protein signal transduction; and substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Flemming body; cytosol; and spindle midzone. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and microtubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Meckel syndrome and primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 20. Orthologous to human KIF14 (kinesin family member 14). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Kif14 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
