Summary
Predicted to enable complement binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of fibroblast growth factor production; and negative regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of activation of membrane attack complex. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including Meckel's cartilage; nervous system; neural retina; skeleton; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal carcinoma and ovarian cancer. Orthologous to human CD59 (CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group)).

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.
