Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in regulation of fat cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; limb mesenchyme; metanephros; and musculoskeletal system. Orthologous to human DLK2 (delta like non-canonical Notch ligand 2).
