Description
Predicted to have GTP binding activity; GTPase activity; and calcium ion binding activity. Involved in determination of left/right symmetry; gastrulation; and left/right pattern formation. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Used to study Carpenter syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Carpenter syndrome. Orthologous to human MEGF8 (multiple EGF like domains 8).
