Summary: Enables siRNA binding activity. Involved in regulatory ncRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing and sperm individualization. Located in cytoplasm; heterochromatin; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including male germline cell; organism subdivision; and testis. Orthologous to human ADARB2 (adenosine deaminase RNA specific B2 (inactive)).
