Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including heparin binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and receptor signaling protein tyrosine kinase activator activity. Involved in energy homeostasis; negative regulation of lipid catabolic process; and positive regulation of dendrite development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hippocampus development; response to environmental enrichment; and swimming behavior. Predicted to be located in axon; cell body; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; peripheral nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study neuroblastoma. Orthologous to human ALK (ALK receptor tyrosine kinase).
