Predicted to be involved in cilium assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell projection organization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including centrosome; cytosol; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in centriole and non-motile cilium. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hydrolethalus syndrome 1. Orthologous to human HYLS1 (HYLS1 centriolar and ciliogenesis associated). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
