Summary: Enables protein homodimerization activity. Involved in dorsal/ventral axis specification; protein folding in endoplasmic reticulum; and regulation of growth. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior-posterior subdivision of organism; dorsal epidermis primordium; embryonic dorsal epidermis; gland; and head epidermis primordium. Orthologous to human ERP29 (endoplasmic reticulum protein 29). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
