Summary
Predicted to enable double-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in chiasma assembly; embryo development; and resolution of meiotic recombination intermediates. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in embryonic cell and gonad. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ovarian insufficiency and spermatogenic failure 2. Orthologous to human MSH4 (mutS homolog 4).
