Summary
Predicted to enable fatty-acyl-CoA binding activity and lipid binding activity. Involved in lipid storage. Is expressed in body wall musculature; hypodermis; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinal dystrophy with leukodystrophy. Orthologous to human ACBD4 (acyl-CoA binding domain containing 4) and ACBD5 (acyl-CoA binding domain containing 5).
