Summary
Predicted to enable hyaluronic acid binding activity and transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Predicted to contribute to cytokine receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within vasculature development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region; membrane; and microvillus. Predicted to be part of macrophage migration inhibitory factor receptor complex. Predicted to be active in basolateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in brain and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast carcinoma (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human CD44 (CD44 molecule (IN blood group)).
