Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Growth factor receptor cysteine-rich domain superfamily; Fibronectin type III superfamily; Immunoglobulin-like fold; Furin-like repeat; Furin-like cysteine rich region; Receptor L domain; Receptor L-domain superfamily; Receptor L-domain; and Furin-like cysteine-rich domain. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
daf-2 and members of the C. elegans ver and kin gene classes including
ver-3 and
kin-15. In C. elegans,
daf-2 is involved in several processes, including dauer exit; regulation of developmental process; and regulation of macromolecule metabolic process.
