UniProt code: Q8ML92.

Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Arthropoda; Hexapoda; Insecta; Pterygota; Neoptera; Endopterygota; Diptera; Brachycera; Muscomorpha; Ephydroidea; Drosophilidae; Drosophila; Sophophora.
 
Function: Required for normal photoreceptor differentiation between Ras and Raf for EGFR signaling in the eye and for mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation. Probably acts together with Cnk to promote Raf activation, perhaps by recruiting an activating kinase. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16600911}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with the SAM domain of cnk. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16600911}.
