Bpifa1 - BPI fold containing family A, member 1 Gene

Also Known as LUNX; NASG; Plunc; SPURT; SPLUNC1

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 18843

Summary

Predicted to enable lipid binding activity. Involved in Antibacterial humoral response; innate immune response; and negative regulation of single-species biofilm formation in or on host organism. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and microvillus. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in hemolymphoid system; nose; respiratory system; and turbinate bone. Used to study otitis media. Orthologous to human BPIFA1 (BPI fold containing family A member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
