Summary: Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and calcium-dependent protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within astrocyte development and positive regulation of peptide secretion. Predicted to be located in cytosol; extracellular space; and intermediate filament cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of calprotectin complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including bone marrow; extraembryonic component; liver; mesometrium; and placenta. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myocarditis. Orthologous to human S100A8 (S100 calcium binding protein A8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
