Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome protein; Hid-1/Ecm30; Lustrin, cysteine-rich repeated; Lustrin, cysteine-rich repeated domain; and Cysteine-rich repeat. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
hid-1. In C. elegans,
hid-1 is involved in several processes, including cellular response to carbon dioxide; defecation; and negative regulation of nematode pharyngeal pumping.
