Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables Hsp90 protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including gene expression; siRNA-mediated retrotransposon silencing by heterochromatin formation; and spermatogenesis. Located in cytosol and synaptonemal complex. Is expressed in brain; genitourinary system; intestine; liver; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Williams-Beuren syndrome and spermatogenic failure. Orthologous to human FKBP6 (FKBP prolyl isomerase family member 6 (inactive)).
