Description
Predicted to have cytokine activity. Predicted to be involved in BMP signaling pathway; SMAD protein signal transduction; and positive regulation of pathway-restricted SMAD protein phosphorylation. Predicted to localize to extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis 17; bone disease (multiple); cleft lip; cleft palate; and isolated microphthalmia 4. Orthologous to human GDF6 (growth differentiation factor 6).
