Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable ATPase binding activity; peroxisome membrane class-1 targeting sequence binding activity; and protein carrier chaperone. Predicted to be involved in chaperone-mediated protein folding; peroxisome organization; and protein stabilization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including brush border membrane; nucleoplasm; and peroxisome. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in peroxisomal membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system; tail; and trunk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in peroxisome biogenesis disorder 12A. Orthologous to human PEX19 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 19).
