Description

Predicted to have cytokine activity; type II transforming growth factor beta receptor binding activity; and type III transforming growth factor beta receptor binding activity. Involved in roof of mouth development and sclerotome development. Predicted to localize to extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including mandibular arch skeleton; mesoderm; otic placode; pericardial region; and periocular mesenchyme. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Loeys-Dietz syndrome 4 and colorectal cancer. Orthologous to human TGFB2 (transforming growth factor beta 2).
