Summary
Predicted to be involved in heterochromatin assembly and histone modification. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA repair and regulation of growth. Predicted to be located in nucleolus; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex. Is expressed in genitourinary system and retina. Orthologous to human MORF4L2 (mortality factor 4 like 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
