Summary
Predicted to enable CCR6 chemokine receptor binding activity; chemoattractant activity; and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding activity. Acts upstream of or within defense response to bacterium. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in skin. Orthologous to human DEFB4A (defensin beta 4A) and DEFB4B (defensin beta 4B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 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.
