Summary: Predicted to enable receptor ligand activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Involved in cell migration involved in sprouting angiogenesis; negative regulation of blood vessel endothelial cell proliferation involved in sprouting angiogenesis; and positive regulation of defense response to bacterium. Located in basement membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human MMRN2 (multimerin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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.
