This protein is likely to be highly expressed, and is expressed from the sub-telomeric region. However, the function is not known. Other domains on this protein include DGF-1_N, DGF-1_2, and DGF-1_4. This domain is just downstream from the C-terminus, but not the C-terminus of proteins, also annotated as being DGF-1, that constitute family DGF-1_C.
