| Function | Probable receptor with tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Required for determination of anterior and posterior terminal structures in the Drosophila embryo. The ligand of torso seems to be TSL. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2927509, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8423783}. |
| Subcellular Location | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed throughout the embryo but is activated specifically at the poles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2927509, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8423783}. |
| Top Pathways | MAPK signaling pathway - fly |
