Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA metabolic process. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in short stature, hearing loss, retinitis pigmentosa, and distinctive facies. Is an ortholog of human EXOSC2 (exosome component 2).
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.
