Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and oxidoreductase activity. Involved in skeletal muscle satellite cell maintenance involved in skeletal muscle regeneration. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including L-ascorbic acid transmembrane transport; cellular response to caffeine; and skeletal muscle tissue development. Is active in endoplasmic reticulum; mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane contact site; and mitochondrial membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including diaphragm; embryo mesenchyme; limb; liver; and nervous system. Used to study rigid spine muscular dystrophy 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in rigid spine muscular dystrophy 1. Orthologous to human SELENON (selenoprotein N).
