Function
Regulates cell fate specification in the postembryonic mesodermal M lineage and body size, probably by positively modulating BMP-like Sma/Mab signaling at the ligand-receptor level. Promotes ventral fate specification in the M lineage, probably by positively modulating lin-12/Notch signaling.
