Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Exoribonuclease, PH domain 2 superfamily; PNPase/RNase PH domain superfamily; 3' exoribonuclease family, domain 1; Exoribonuclease, phosphorolytic domain 1; and Ribosomal protein S5 domain 2-type fold. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
crn-5. In C. elegans,
crn-5 is involved in RNA processing and apoptotic DNA fragmentation.
