Predicted to enable ATP-dependent activity, acting on DNA and DNA binding activity. Involved in gonad development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including head;
hyp7 syncytium; tail; ventral cord neurons; and vulval cell. Used to study alcohol use disorder and cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Coffin-Siris syndrome 4; carcinoma (multiple); and rhabdoid cancer. Is an ortholog of human SMARCA2 (SWI/SNF related, matrix associated, actin dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a, member 2) and SMARCA4 (SWI/SNF related, matrix associated, actin dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a, member 4).
