Predicted to enable helicase activity; nucleic acid binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including mitochondrial RNA metabolic process; mitochondrion morphogenesis; and positive regulation of mitochondrial RNA catabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early embryo; extraembryonic component; sensory organ; and skin. Orthologous to human SUPV3L1 (Suv3 like RNA helicase).
