Summary: Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity; heparin binding activity; and metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including bone regeneration; negative regulation of cell-substrate adhesion; and positive regulation of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 production. Located in extracellular space and neuromuscular junction. Used to study congestive heart failure. Biomarker of artery disease (multiple); degenerative disc disease; end stage renal disease; periodontitis; and tendinitis. Orthologous to human POSTN (periostin).

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.
