Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Sterile alpha motif domain; Sterile alpha motif/pointed domain superfamily; LAR-interacting protein, Liprin; Liprin-beta; and SAM domain (Sterile alpha motif). Is an ortholog of C. elegans
hlb-1. In C. elegans,
hlb-1 is involved in several processes, including neuromuscular junction development; positive regulation of locomotion; and regulation of pharyngeal pumping.
