Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables receptor tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including ERBB2-ERBB3 signaling pathway; neurogenesis; and skeletal muscle hypertrophy. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and node of Ranvier. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; eye; genitourinary system; lung; and meninges. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in juvenile glaucoma; low tension glaucoma; ocular hypertension; open-angle glaucoma; and primary open angle glaucoma. Orthologous to human MYOC (myocilin).
