Summary: Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; nucleotidyltransferase activity; and ribonucleoside binding activity. Predicted to contribute to DNA-directed 5'-3' RNA polymerase activity. Predicted to be involved in transcription, DNA-templated. Located in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including intestine and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Treacher Collins syndrome 4. Orthologous to human POLR1B (RNA polymerase I subunit B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
