Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including heparin binding activity; serine-type endopeptidase activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in leukocyte migration involved in inflammatory response and positive regulation of leukocyte tethering or rolling. Predicted to be located in cell surface and secretory granule. Predicted to be part of transcription repressor complex. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Used to study several diseases, including cerebrovascular disease (multiple); lung disease (multiple); mucositis; pleurisy; and polycythemia vera. Biomarker of suppurative periapical periodontitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cyclic hematopoiesis; periodontitis; severe congenital neutropenia; and severe congenital neutropenia 1. Orthologous to human ELANE (elastase, neutrophil expressed). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
