Enriched in female based on proteomic studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Protein/nucleic acid deglycase DJ-1; DJ-1/PfpI family; DJ-1/PfpI; and Class I glutamine amidotransferase-like. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
djr-1.1 and
djr-1.2. In C. elegans,
djr-1.1 is involved in several processes, including cellular aldehyde metabolic process; cellular response to aldehyde; and monocarboxylic acid biosynthetic process.
