Summary: Enables integrin binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in several processes, including G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; blood vessel diameter maintenance; and positive regulation of cell communication. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and neuronal cell body. Is active in presynaptic membrane. Used to study cardiomyopathy. Biomarker of atherosclerosis; myocardial infarction; and pulmonary hypertension.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
