Summary
Predicted to act upstream of or within cornea development in camera-type eye. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arcus senilis; cornea plana; and corneal dystrophy. Orthologous to human KERA (keratocan). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 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.
