Summary: Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and ribonucleoside binding activity. Predicted to contribute to RNA polymerase III activity. Predicted to be involved in tRNA transcription by RNA polymerase III. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase III complex. Is expressed in spermatozoon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 8 with or without oligodontia and-or hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Orthologous to human POLR3B (RNA polymerase III subunit B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
