Predicted to enable transcription corepressor binding activity. Predicted to contribute to poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity. Involved in regulation of stem cell population maintenance and trophectodermal cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of CCR4-NOT core complex. Predicted to be active in P-body. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and intestine. Orthologous to human CNOT2 (CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
