Also known as: BD-37
Summary: Predicted to enable CCR6 chemokine receptor binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in calcium-mediated signaling; defense response to other organism; and positive regulation of flagellated sperm motility involved in capacitation. Predicted to be located in membrane; microvesicle; and sperm midpiece. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; and lung disease. Orthologous to human DEFB1 (defensin beta 1).

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.
