About Bpifa1

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]
