Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables endothelin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including digestive tract development; metal ion transport; and protein transport. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including melanocyte differentiation; neuroblast migration; and posterior midgut development. Predicted to be located in nuclear membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; heart; and peripheral nervous system. Used to study Hirschsprung's disease and Waardenburg syndrome type 4A. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ABCD syndrome; Hirschsprung's disease; Waardenburg syndrome (multiple); asthma; and pulmonary hypertension. Orthologous to human EDNRB (endothelin receptor type B).
