Predicted to enable non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine kinase activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation; innate immune response; and transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway. Predicted to be extrinsic component of cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; and lung adenocarcinoma. Is an ortholog of human FER (FER tyrosine kinase) and FES (FES proto-oncogene, tyrosine kinase).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
