    Summary
    Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in imaginal disc-derived leg morphogenesis; melanotic encapsulation of foreign target; and regulation of neurotransmitter secretion. Located in neuromuscular junction. Colocalizes with presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including clypeo-labral primordium; embryonic epipharynx; epipharynx primordium; leg joint; and primary tracheal branch. Orthologous to several human genes including ARHGEF19 (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 19). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
