Predicted to enable potassium channel regulator activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in intracellular signal transduction and peptidyl-serine phosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in absence of ligand. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic vesicle and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to several human genes including C8orf44-SGK3 (C8orf44-SGK3 readthrough). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
