Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in ether lipid biosynthetic process and neutrophil differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including brown fat cell differentiation; phosphatidylcholine biosynthetic process; and regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis. Located in membrane; nucleus; and peroxisome. Part of transcription regulator complex. Orthologous to human DHRS7B (dehydrogenase/reductase 7B).
