Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; endoribonuclease inhibitor activity; and ribosomal small subunit binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of endoribonuclease activity; ribosomal subunit export from nucleus; and translation. Predicted to be located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in human immunodeficiency virus infectious disease. Orthologous to human ABCE1 (ATP binding cassette subfamily E member 1).
