Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and ubiquitin-dependent protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in establishment of protein localization to peroxisome; protein stabilization; and protein unfolding. Located in photoreceptor cell cilium. Is expressed in brain; embryo; liver; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Heimler syndrome 2; peroxisomal biogenesis disorder; and peroxisome biogenesis disorder 4A. Orthologous to human PEX6 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 6).
