Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable channel regulator activity; lipid binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including endosomal transport; positive regulation of exosomal secretion; and positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including endosome; nucleoplasm; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of ESCRT II complex and transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; central nervous system; fronto-nasal process; testis; and urinary system. Orthologous to human SNF8 (SNF8 subunit of ESCRT-II).
