Description

Exhibits insulin-like growth factor receptor binding activity. Involved in animal organ development; fin regeneration; and somitogenesis. Predicted to localize to extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in choriocarcinoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; and rheumatoid arthritis. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; digestive system; hypochord; pericardial region; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human IGF2 (insulin like growth factor 2).
