- Description
- Enables MAP kinase kinase kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within nervous system development; protein-containing complex assembly; and regulation of dopaminergic neuron differentiation. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; eye; gut; intermediate mesoderm; and lateral line system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Hirschsprung's disease; Parkinsonism; alcohol dependence; alcohol use disorder; and heroin dependence. Orthologous to human GDNF (glial cell derived neurotrophic factor).
