Predicted to enable peroxidase activity. Involved in muscle attachment and positive regulation of axon guidance. Located in basement membrane. Expressed in several structures, including egg-laying apparatus; excretory cell; intestine; somatic nervous system; and spermathecal-uterine valve cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease 1; asthma (multiple); kidney failure (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of human PXDN (peroxidasin) and PXDNL (peroxidasin like).
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.
