Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Ribonuclease Z/Hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase-like; Metallo-beta-lactamase; and Beta-lactamase superfamily domain. Is an ortholog of C. elegans hoe-1. In C. elegans, hoe-1 is involved in nematode larval development; positive regulation of vulval development; and sexual reproduction.
