Subcellular LocationSecreted
Developmental StageExpressed in the embryo and larva.
SimilarityBelongs to the insulin family.
Tissue SpecificityBroadly expressed at a low level in the embryonic mesoderm; beginning at stage 12. Expressed at a high level in the embryonic anterior midgut; with expression diminishing at late stage 16. Expressed a
Post Translational ModificationNA
FunctionPlays a role in regulating body size by increasing cell size and cell number of individual organs. Probably mediates its growth effects by acting as a ligand for the insulin receptor and transducing a signal via the Chico/PI3K/Akt(PKB) pathway.
