Predicted to enable damaged DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; negative regulation of double-strand break repair via nonhomologous end joining; and spindle organization. Predicted to be located in site of DNA damage. Predicted to be active in centrosome and spindle pole. Orthologous to human AUNIP (aurora kinase A and ninein interacting protein).
