Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to salt; collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle development; and positive regulation of synaptic assembly at neuromuscular junction. Located in nucleus. Expressed in head; hypodermis; ventral cord neurons; and vulva.
Enables serine-type endopeptidase activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including neuron development; positive regulation of developmental process; and protein processing. Located in neuronal cell body. Expressed in several structures, including PVD; epithelial cell; nervous system; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arteriosclerosis; colon adenocarcinoma; and colorectal adenocarcinoma. Is an ortholog of human FURIN (furin, paired basic amino acid cleaving enzyme).
