Enables RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic chromosome centromere condensation; nuclear pore localization; and protein localization to organelle. Located in P granule; kinetochore; and nuclear envelope. Part of nuclear pore. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Is an ortholog of human NUP98 (nucleoporin 98 and 96 precursor).
Predicted to enable hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase activity. Predicted to be involved in L-leucine catabolic process and ketone body biosynthetic process. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amino acid metabolic disorder. Is an ortholog of human HMGCL (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase) and HMGCLL1 (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase like 1).
