Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in interleukin-27-mediated signaling pathway and purine nucleotide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol; membrane; and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system; retina; and thymus primordium. Orthologous to human OASL2P (2'-5' oligoadenylate synthetase like 2, pseudogene).
