Predicted to enable several functions, including cation binding activity; poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including RNA metabolic process; positive regulation of DNA biosynthetic process; and telomerase RNA stabilization. Predicted to be located in nuclear speck and nucleolus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive dyskeratosis congenita 6. Orthologous to human PARN (poly(A)-specific ribonuclease). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
