Predicted to enable ribonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in angiogenesis; antimicrobial humoral immune response mediated by antimicrobial peptide; and defense response to other organism. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell growth involved in cardiac muscle cell development; cellular response to glucose stimulus; and positive regulation of protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetic retinopathy; myocardial infarction; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human ANG (angiogenin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
