Predicted to enable SNARE binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, nonsense-mediated decay; nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process; and retrograde vesicle-mediated transport, Golgi to endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be part of Dsl1/NZR complex. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; connective tissue; limb; nervous system; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in infantile liver failure syndrome. Orthologous to human NBAS (NBAS subunit of NRZ tethering complex). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
