Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 6.0.0)
Enables protein homodimerization activity and receptor tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of presynaptic membrane organization; positive regulation of skeletal muscle acetylcholine-gated channel clustering; and synapse organization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic digit morphogenesis; hair follicle development; and regionalization. Located in neuromuscular junction and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; extraembryonic component; eye; and genitourinary system. Used to study sclerosteosis 2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome; congenital myasthenic syndrome 17; and sclerosteosis 2. Orthologous to human LRP4 (LDL receptor related protein 4).
