Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including antigen binding activity; carbohydrate derivative binding activity; and pattern recognition receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; activation of immune response; and positive regulation of interleukin-8 production. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of collagen trimer. Predicted to be active in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Orthologous to human FCN3 (ficolin 3). [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.
