Smoc2 - SPARC related modular calcium binding 2 Gene

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity; extracellular matrix binding activity; and heparin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of endothelial cell chemotaxis; positive regulation of signal transduction; and positive regulation of vascular wound healing. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of cell-substrate adhesion. Predicted to be located in interstitial matrix. Predicted to be active in basement membrane and extracellular space. Orthologous to human SMOC2 (SPARC related modular calcium binding 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
