Afp - alpha fetoprotein Gene
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Predicted to enable fatty acid binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within SMAD protein signal transduction; ovulation from ovarian follicle; and progesterone metabolic process. Located in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including amniotic fluid; egg cylinder; gut; liver and biliary system; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatitis C. Orthologous to human AFP (alpha fetoprotein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
