Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in cranial skeletal system development; establishment of protein localization; and midbody abscission. Acts upstream of or within mitotic cytokinesis. Located in Flemming body; centriolar satellite; and plasma membrane. Implicated in multinucleated neurons, anhydramnios, renal dysplasia, cerebellar hypoplasia and hydranencephaly. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
