Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable coreceptor activity and cytokine receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within cytokine-mediated signaling pathway and regulation of cell growth. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including bone marrow; cardiovascular system mesenchyme; genitourinary system; trunk; and yolk sac. Used to study pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Orthologous to human CSF2RB (colony stimulating factor 2 receptor subunit beta).
