Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable LRR domain binding activity; axon guidance receptor activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including circulatory system development; neuron development; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axon guidance; heart development; and mammary duct terminal end bud growth. Located in axolemma. Is expressed in several structures, including autopod; central nervous system; genitourinary system; jaw; and sensory organ. Used to study cystic kidney disease and lung cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive congenital nystagmus; congenital nystagmus; multiple myeloma; panhypopituitarism; and plasmacytoma. Orthologous to human ROBO1 (roundabout guidance receptor 1).
