Predicted to enable extracellular ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity and transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in monoatomic ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
mod-1. In C. elegans,
mod-1 is involved in several processes, including behavioral response to starvation; locomotory exploration behavior; and positive regulation of fatty acid beta-oxidation by serotonin receptor signaling pathway.
