Description
Predicted to have heparin binding activity; serine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity; and transition metal ion binding activity. Involved in central nervous system development; convergent extension; and vasculature development. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in APP-related cerebral amyloid angiopathy; Alzheimer's disease; Alzheimer's disease 1; cognitive disorder; and visual epilepsy. Is expressed in several structures, including female organism; heart; male organism; nervous system; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human APP (amyloid beta precursor protein).
