Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 13239

Summary

Predicted to enable protein homodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within defense response to bacterium. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle and midbody. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in ileum. Orthologous to several human genes including DEFA1B (defensin alpha 1B); DEFA3 (defensin alpha 3); and DEFA5 (defensin alpha 5).
