Summary
Enables SMAD binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of nodal signaling pathway and pathway-restricted SMAD protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be active in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is expressed in head. Orthologous to human ARAF (A-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
