Summary: Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity; heparosan-N-sulfate-glucuronate 5-epimerase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in negative regulation of cell projection organization; positive regulation of SMAD protein signal transduction; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebrovascular disease and hypertension. Orthologous to human GLCE (glucuronic acid epimerase).

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.
