UniProtKB description:  Ligand for transmembrane receptor PlexB (PubMed:16672342). Plays a role in growth cone guidance (PubMed:8269517, PubMed:27618755). Required for both proper adult behavior and survival (PubMed:8269517, PubMed:37041188). Can function as a selective target-derived signal that inhibits the formation of specific synaptic terminal arbors (PubMed:8269517). Function in neurons is essential for adult survival, motor neuron surival, and is important for climbing behavior and activity (PubMed:37041188). During embryogenesis, plays an important role in correct salivary gland positioning (PubMed:27618755).
