Enables BH domain binding activity. Involved in intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator and positive regulation of apoptotic process.
Predicted to enable cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase inhibitor activity. Involved in gonad development; regulation of cell cycle process; and regulation of cell division. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including P3.pa; P3.pp; P5.ppp; P7.paa; and germ line. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including carcinoma (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and urinary system cancer (multiple). Is an ortholog of human CDKN1B (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1B).
