Predicted to enable procollagen galactosyltransferase activity; procollagen glucosyltransferase activity; and procollagen-lysine 5-dioxygenase activity. Involved in cellular response to hormone stimulus. Predicted to be located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix; extracellular space; and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Biomarker of hypothyroidism. Orthologous to human PLOD3 (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 3).
