Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable CD4 receptor binding activity. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in cytosol and trans-Golgi network transport vesicle. Is expressed in extraembryonic component; head mesenchyme; tongue; and vertebral axis musculature. Used to study Mast syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Mast syndrome and hereditary spastic paraplegia. Orthologous to human SPG21 (SPG21 abhydrolase domain containing, maspardin).
