About Sftpa1

Summary

Predicted to enable carbohydrate binding activity and metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mechanical stimulus; cellular response to nitric oxide; and response to vitamin A. Located in extracellular space; multivesicular body; and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Biomarker of asthma; Bacterial pneumonia; lung disease; newborn respiratory distress syndrome; and obesity. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lung disease (multiple) and respiratory syncytial virus infectious disease. Orthologous to several human genes including SFTPA1 (surfactant protein A1).
