Description: Mutations in this gene are associated with craniosynostosis and enlarged parietal foramina. Wildtype levels of this gene activity may establish a balance between survival and apoptosis of neural crest-derived cells required for proper craniofacial morphogenesis. This protein promotes cell growth under certain conditions and may be an important target for the RAS signaling pathways.
