Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: RecF/RecN/SMC N terminal domain; P-loop containing nucleoside triphosphate hydrolase; and RecF/RecN/SMC, N-terminal. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
smc-4. In C. elegans,
smc-4 is involved in mitotic sister chromatid segregation and positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis.
