Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: MaoC like domain; N-terminal half of MaoC dehydratase; HotDog domain superfamily; N-terminal of MaoC-like dehydratase; and MaoC-like dehydratase domain. Is an ortholog of C. elegans maoc-1. In C. elegans, maoc-1 is involved in defense response to Gram-negative bacterium and innate immune response.
