Enables single-stranded DNA binding activity and single-stranded RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in G-quadruplex DNA formation; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myotonic dystrophy type 2. Orthologous to human CNBP (CCHC-type zinc finger nucleic acid binding protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
