Summary
Enables integrin binding activity; phosphatidylethanolamine binding activity; and phosphatidylserine binding activity. Involved in apoptotic cell clearance. Acts upstream of or within phagocytosis, engulfment; phagocytosis, recognition; and positive regulation of phagocytosis. Located in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is extrinsic component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cap mesenchyme; central nervous system; reproductive system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in temporal arteritis. Orthologous to human MFGE8 (milk fat globule EGF and factor V/VIII domain containing).

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.
