Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; immune system; and integumental system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypotrichosis. Orthologous to human LPAR6 (lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
