Description
Enables apelin receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on determination of heart left/right asymmetry and determination of liver left/right asymmetry. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell migration involved in mesendoderm migration; circulatory system development; and mesodermal cell migration. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including axial chorda mesoderm; axis; cardiovascular system; notochord; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congestive heart failure. Orthologous to human APLN (apelin).
