Gene data

DNAH9
Name
dynein axonemal heavy chain 9
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
CILD40, DNAH17L, DNEL1, DYH9, Dnahc9, HL-20, HL20

This gene encodes the heavy chain subunit of axonemal dynein, a large multi-subunit molecular motor. Axonemal dynein attaches to microtubules and hydrolyzes ATP to mediate the movement of cilia and flagella. The gene expresses at least two transcript variants; additional variants have been described, but their full length nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
