Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in purine nucleotide biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of viral process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion; nucleus; and ribosome. Predicted to be active in cytosol; membrane; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to colocalize with cytoplasm. Is expressed in appendicular skeleton; axial skeleton; lower jaw; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary immunodeficiency disease. Orthologous to human OAS1 (2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase 1).
