Predicted to be involved in cell adhesion and regulation of synapse assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cholesterol homeostasis; lipid droplet formation; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in postsynaptic density. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
