Summary: Predicted to enable heparin binding activity and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of vascular associated smooth muscle cell proliferation; positive regulation of aortic smooth muscle cell differentiation; and vasculature development. Predicted to act upstream of or within artery development and elastic fiber assembly. Predicted to be located in basement membrane; elastic fiber; and microfibril. Biomarker of osteoarthritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in aortic aneurysm; arterial tortuosity syndrome; autosomal recessive cutis laxa type IB; endometrial cancer; and osteosarcoma. Orthologous to human EFEMP2 (EGF containing fibulin extracellular matrix protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression: Biased expression in Uterus (RPKM 97.1), Kidney (RPKM 81.0) and 9 other tissues See more

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.
