Predicted to enable several functions, including anion binding activity; toxic substance binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to contribute to oxygen binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to calcium ion starvation; negative regulation of mitochondrial depolarization; and positive regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle, non-REM sleep. Located in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; extraembryonic component; liver and biliary system; and trunk musculature.
