Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity. Involved in hemopoiesis; homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules; and nervous system development. Acts upstream of or within glomerulus morphogenesis; inter-male aggressive behavior; and nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including axon; dendritic shaft; and extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including Rathke's pouch; branchial arch; central nervous system; limb bud; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human KIRREL3 (kirre like nephrin family adhesion molecule 3).
