Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Tetratricopeptide-like helical domain superfamily; Ankyrin repeat-containing domain superfamily; Ankyrin repeats (3 copies); and Ankyrin repeat. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
fem-1. In C. elegans,
fem-1 is involved in several processes, including proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; regulation of germ cell proliferation; and sex determination.
