Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in kinetochore assembly; mitotic sister chromatid cohesion; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell division. Predicted to be located in chromatin; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in brain; early conceptus; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in White-Sutton syndrome. Orthologous to human POGZ (pogo transposable element derived with ZNF domain). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
