Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of inflammatory response; response to virus; and toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of innate immune response; negative regulation of type I interferon production; and positive regulation of protein K48-linked ubiquitination. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in genitourinary system; limb; and retina. Orthologous to human NMI (N-myc and STAT interactor).
