Enables ephrin receptor activity and growth factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including axonal fasciculation; ephrin receptor signaling pathway; and synaptic membrane adhesion. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to follicle-stimulating hormone stimulus; negative regulation of neuron projection development; and regulation of cell migration. Located in GABA-ergic synapse. Is active in presynapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; genitourinary system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human EPHA3 (EPH receptor A3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
