Description
Predicted to have platelet-derived growth factor receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including platelet-derived growth factor receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling; and positive regulation of protein phosphorylation. Predicted to localize to extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in malignant glioma. Is expressed in endoderm; mouth; pharyngeal arch; pharyngeal endoderm; and pharyngeal pouch. Orthologous to human PDGFA (platelet derived growth factor subunit A).
