Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within female meiosis II and positive regulation of ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be located in centrosome; cleavage furrow; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; otic capsule; secondary oocyte; thymus primordium; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in thrombocytopenia. Orthologous to human MASTL (microtubule associated serine/threonine kinase like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
