|
| 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}.
