Is active in postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; hepatic primordium; liver; and retina. Used to study anterior segment dysgenesis; autism spectrum disorder; autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease; spinal disease; and tuberous sclerosis.
