Description
Predicted to have cytokine activity and tumor necrosis factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including fin regeneration; intestinal epithelial structure maintenance; and response to bacterium. Predicted to localize to extracellular space and integral component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); autoimmune hypersensitivity disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); lung disease (multiple); and skin disease (multiple). Is expressed in several structures, including heart; integument; liver; male organism; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to several human genes including LTA (lymphotoxin alpha).
