Summary: Enables calcium ion binding activity. Located in basement membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; enteric muscle; head mesodermal cell; pharynx; and reproductive system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cervix carcinoma; endometrial carcinoma; multiple myeloma; and osteogenesis imperfecta type 17. Orthologous to several human genes including SPARC (secreted protein acidic and cysteine rich). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

SPARC functions normally to traffic collagen from its site of synthesis to tissues that do not express collagen.SPARC promotes anchor cell invasion by decreasing type IV collagen levels in the basement membrane.
