Predicted to contribute to ubiquitin-protein transferase activity. Involved in response to auditory stimulus and response to organic cyclic compound. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and perikaryon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Cockayne syndrome; Cockayne syndrome A; and UV-sensitive syndrome. Orthologous to human ERCC8 (ERCC excision repair 8, CSA ubiquitin ligase complex subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
