Organism
Pristionchus pacificus
Automated Description
Predicted to enable signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in Wnt signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is an ortholog of C. elegans cwn-2. In C. elegans, cwn-2 is involved in several processes, including neuroblast migration; neuron migration; and pattern specification process.
