Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Expressed in body wall musculature; intestine; pharyngeal muscle cell; pharynx; and rectal muscle. Is an ortholog of human PHF5A (PHD finger protein 5A).
phf-5 was previously connected to Y54F10BM.1 [Blasiar D][030411 ck1]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
