Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable cadherin binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Acts upstream of or within vasodilation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; lamellipodium; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cell-cell junction. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PTPRM (protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type M).
