Predicted to enable several functions, including microtubule binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of stress-activated MAPK cascade and protein localization to microtubule. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of microtubule depolymerization. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and microtubule. Predicted to colocalize with cytoplasmic microtubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Opitz GBBB syndrome type I. Orthologous to human MID1 (midline 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
