Catalyzes the deimination of arginine residues of proteins (By similarity). May be involved in cytoskeletal reorganization in the egg and early embryo .
Catalyzes the deimination of arginine residues of proteins (By similarity). In oocytes, is released during cortical reaction and plays a role in preimplantation cleavage and early embryonic development (By similarity). May be involved in cytoskeletal reorganization in the egg and early embryo .
Subcellular locations: Cytoplasm, Nucleus, Cytoplasmic vesicle, Secretory vesicle, Cortical granule
Predominantly cytoplasmic (oocyte cytoplasmic sheets), also nuclear. Released extracellularly during the cortical reaction, and remains associated with the blastomeres surfaces as a peripheral membrane protein until the blastocyst stage of development.
Highly expressed in oocytes and weakly expressed in other somatic tissues.
