Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Zinc finger, C2H2 type; Zinc finger C2H2 superfamily; and Zinc finger C2H2-type. Is an ortholog of C. elegans hbl-1. In C. elegans, hbl-1 is involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and nematode larval development.
