Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose starvation; intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by p53 class mediator; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of with a negative effect on regulation of G1 to G0 transition. Predicted to act upstream of or within chromatin organization; methylation; and rRNA processing. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of eNoSc complex and rDNA heterochromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and integumental system. Orthologous to human RRP8 (ribosomal RNA processing 8).
