Summary: Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; DNA-directed 5'-3' RNA polymerase activity; and ribonucleoside binding activity. Predicted to contribute to RNA polymerase III activity. Predicted to be involved in transcription by RNA polymerase III. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase III complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 8. Orthologous to human POLR3B (RNA polymerase III subunit B).
