NCIt definition : Human DYNC2H1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11q22.3 and is approximately
370 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cytoplasmic dynein 2 heavy chain protein,
is involved in intraflagellar retrograde transport and cilia formation. Mutations
in the gene are associated with short-rib thoracic dysplasia 3 with or without polydactyly.;
