Summary: Enables calcium ion binding activity and calcium-dependent protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including branching morphogenesis of an epithelial tube; response to calcium ion; and response to glucocorticoid. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Part of protein-containing complex. Biomarker of brain infarction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arteriosclerosis; calcinosis; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human MGP (matrix Gla protein).

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.
