Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable enzyme binding activity; protein domain specific binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of homotypic cell-cell adhesion; positive regulation of release of cytochrome c from mitochondria; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in plasma membrane. Part of serine-type endopeptidase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including decidua; early conceptus; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in rheumatoid arthritis. Orthologous to human PLAUR (plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor).
