Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable enzyme activator activity. Predicted to be involved in GPI anchor biosynthetic process; dolichol metabolic process; and regulation of protein stability. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of dolichol-phosphate-mannose synthase complex. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; eye; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital disorder of glycosylation type I and muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type B15. Orthologous to human DPM3 (dolichyl-phosphate mannosyltransferase subunit 3, regulatory).
