Gene Summary

Enables dynein intermediate chain binding activity; dynein light intermediate chain binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including animal organ morphogenesis; cytoskeleton organization; and germ cell development. Located in centriole and cytoplasm. Part of cytoplasmic dynein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including ectoderm; embryonic brain; extended germ band embryo; germline cell; and wing disc. Orthologous to several human genes including DYNLL2 (dynein light chain LC8-type 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
