Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables insulin-like growth factor binding activity and mannose binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including liver development; positive regulation by host of viral process; and response to retinoic acid. Located in membrane and nuclear envelope lumen. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; early conceptus; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetes mellitus (multiple); hepatocellular carcinoma; in situ carcinoma (multiple); and nephroblastoma. Orthologous to human IGF2R (insulin like growth factor 2 receptor).
