Enables identical protein binding activity; microtubule binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Involved in several processes, including lysosome localization; natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity; and positive regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane. Located in centriolar satellite; cytosol; and vesicle. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
