    basic FUNCTION
  • playing an important role in morphogenesis in all multicellular organisms
  • may be playing a role in metanephric kidney development within the intermediate mesoderm (Mugford 2008)
  • suppresses the expression of HOXD10 and the retinoic acid synthetic enzyme, retinaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (RALDH2) (Misra 2009)
