Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including gamete generation; positive regulation of reproductive process; and regulation of cell cycle. Located in cytoplasm. Expressed in body wall musculature; dorsal nerve cord; germ line; gonad; and ventral nerve cord. Used to study autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in late onset Parkinson's disease and spinocerebellar ataxia type 2. Is an ortholog of human ATXN2 (ataxin 2) and ATXN2L (ataxin 2 like).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkSequence connection from [Kiehl TR]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
