Name
BICD cargo adaptor 2
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
SMALED2, SMALED2A, SMALED2B, bA526D8.1

This gene is one of two human homologs of Drosophila bicaudal-D and a member of the Bicoid family. It has been implicated in dynein-mediated, minus end-directed motility along microtubules. It has also been reported to be a phosphorylation target of NIMA related kinase 8. Two alternative splice variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
