Also Known as AKH; akhirin; 1700052E02Rik; 1700110E08Rik; 2810429K11Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 74199

Summary

Enables glycosaminoglycan binding activity. Involved in spinal cord development. Acts upstream of or within extracellular matrix organization and positive regulation of cell-substrate adhesion. Located in interstitial matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including cranium; ganglia; sensory organ; ventral grey horn; and ventricular layer. Orthologous to human VIT (vitrin).
