Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of Golgi to plasma membrane protein transport; positive regulation of bone mineralization; and positive regulation of chondrocyte differentiation. Acts upstream of or within bone mineralization; limb morphogenesis; and skeletal system development. Located in Golgi apparatus and extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; arm; embryo ectoderm; embryo mesenchyme; and mesothelium. Orthologous to human PKDCC (protein kinase domain containing, cytoplasmic).
