Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within embryonic digit morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; immune system; and liver and biliary system. Used to study acheiropody. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Laurin-Sandrow syndrome; acheiropody; hypoplastic or aplastic tibia with polydactyly; and syndactyly type 4. Orthologous to human LMBR1 (limb development membrane protein 1).
