Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Involved in embryonic brain development; neuron projection development; and response to electrical stimulus. Acts upstream of or within establishment or maintenance of epithelial cell apical/basal polarity. Located in apicolateral plasma membrane; cytoplasm; and lateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; primitive streak; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PRICKLE2 (prickle planar cell polarity protein 2).
