Description
Predicted to have Hsp90 protein binding activity. Involved in lens development in camera-type eye; striated muscle cell development; and striated muscle tissue development. Localizes to Z disc. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract 43. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; eye; mesoderm; musculature system; and myoblast. Orthologous to human UNC45B (unc-45 myosin chaperone B).
