scw - screw

Enables protein heterodimerization activity and receptor ligand activity. Involved in several processes, including BMP signaling pathway; amnioserosa formation; and digestive tract mesoderm development. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including anlage in statu nascendi; antennal anlage; central brain anlage; central brain anlage in statu nascendi; and dorsal ectoderm anlage. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including BMP5 (bone morphogenetic protein 5); BMP7 (bone morphogenetic protein 7); and BMP8A (bone morphogenetic protein 8a).
