Predicted to enable protein kinase inhibitor activity. Involved in negative regulation of phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; genetic imprinting; and regulation of exit from mitosis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and pre-eclampsia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome; IMAGe syndrome; and hyperinsulinism. Orthologous to human CDKN1C (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
