Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable enzyme-substrate adaptor activity; mRNA binding activity; and single-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in cytidine to uridine editing. Acts upstream of or within embryo implantation; mRNA localization resulting in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression; and mRNA modification. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; gonad; liver; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gout. Orthologous to human A1CF (APOBEC1 complementation factor).
