KIF26B

protein-coding

kinesin family member 26B, the group of Kinesins

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is an intracellular motor protein thought to transport organelles along microtubules. The encoded protein is required for kidney development. Elevated levels of this protein have been found in some breast and colorectal cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_018012.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Essential for embryonic kidney development. Plays an important role in the compact adhesion between mesenchymal cells adjacent to the ureteric buds, possibly by interacting with MYH10. This could lead to the establishment of the basolateral integrity of the mesenchyme and the polarized expression of ITGA8, which maintains the GDNF expression required for further ureteric bud attraction. Although it seems to lack ATPase activity it is constitutively associated with microtubules (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.;
