Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionefn-4 encodes a divergent member of the ephrin family of ligands; efn-4 is required for neuroblast migrations during closure of the ventral gastrulation cleft and subsequent epidermal morphogenesis, possibly functioning independently of EFN-1, EFN-2, EFN-3, and the VAB-1 receptor during morphogenesis; EFN-4 can interact weakly with VAB-1 in vitro; EFN-4 is expressed in neural and epidermal precursors at the 100-cell stage, in head neurons, pharyngeal cells, lateral and tail neurons, and in the ectoderm during epidermal enclosure.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003865

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable ephrin receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; nematode male tail tip morphogenesis; and regulation of axon guidance. Located in axon and neuronal cell body. Expressed in several structures, including CAN; epithelial cell; ganglia; intestinal cell; and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in craniofrontonasal syndrome; dysostosis; and stomach cancer. Is an ortholog of human EFNB1 (ephrin B1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
