Predicted to enable histone methyltransferase binding activity and snoRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in ribosome biogenesis. Predicted to be located in fibrillar center. Predicted to be part of box C/D RNP complex; pre-snoRNP complex; and small-subunit processome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spinocerebellar ataxia type 36. Orthologous to human NOP56 (NOP56 ribonucleoprotein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
