Enables methionine adenosyltransferase activity. Involved in S-adenosylmethionine biosynthetic process and negative regulation of lipid storage. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in body wall musculature; dorsal nerve cord; and ventral nerve cord. Used to study lipid metabolism disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypermethioninemia and lung cancer. Is an ortholog of human MAT1A (methionine adenosyltransferase 1A) and MAT2A (methionine adenosyltransferase 2A).
Predicted to enable unfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in protein folding. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of prefoldin complex. Is an ortholog of human PFDN4 (prefoldin subunit 4).
