Summary: Enables MHC class II protein binding activity; cytokine receptor activity; and nitric-oxide synthase binding activity. Contributes to cytokine binding activity. Involved in several processes, including macrophage migration inhibitory factor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cytokine production; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II; regulation of T cell differentiation; and thymic T cell selection. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; lysosome; and multivesicular body. Part of MHC class II protein complex; NOS2-CD74 complex; and macrophage migration inhibitory factor receptor complex. Is expressed in lower jaw; lower jaw incisor; lower jaw molar; and thymus primordium. Orthologous to human CD74 (CD74 molecule). [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.
