Description
Predicted to have Wnt-activated receptor activity and Wnt-protein binding activity. Involved in blood circulation and cartilage development. Predicted to localize to plasma membrane and receptor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome; hepatobiliary system cancer (multiple); lung cancer (multiple); malignant glioma (multiple); and primary hypomagnesemia (multiple). Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; notochord; opercular flap; pleuroperitoneal region; and scale. Orthologous to human EGF (epidermal growth factor).
