|
| Function |
Probable ligand that binds to the torso receptor. Implicated in a receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathway that specifies terminal cell fate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8107870, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8276237}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12814553, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8107870}. Note=Is a component of the vitelline membrane (VM, the inner layer of the eggshell).
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Restricted to specialized categories of follicle cells localized at the poles of the egg chamber. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8107870, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8276237}.
