Predicted to enable arginase activity; manganese ion binding activity; and nitric-oxide synthase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell proliferation; negative regulation of activated CD8-positive, alpha-beta T cell apoptotic process; and regulation of cytokine production. Acts upstream of or within striated muscle contraction. Located in mitochondrion.
