Summary
Predicted to enable platelet-derived growth factor receptor binding activity and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and positive regulation of protein autophosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; cellular response to amino acid stimulus; and regulation of protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; cytosol; and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human PDGFC (platelet derived growth factor C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
