GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 1563805
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Dnah17
Name: dynein, axonemal, heavy chain 17
Acc ID: GO:0031514
Term: motile cilium
Definition: A cilium which may have a variable arrangement of axonemal microtubules and also contains molecular motors. It may beat with a whip-like pattern that promotes cell motility or transport of fluids and other cells across a cell surface, such as on epithelial cells that line the lumenal ducts of various tissues; or they may display a distinct twirling motion that directs fluid flow asymmetrically across the cellular surface to affect asymmetric body plan organization. Motile cilia can be found in single as well as multiple copies per cell.

Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
