Summary: Enables hormone activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of autophagy; negative regulation of osteoblast differentiation; and positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of fatty acid transport and regulation of fatty acid metabolic process. Located in extracellular space. Orthologous to human ERFE (erythroferrone).

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.
