Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Enables receptor ligand activity; transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activator activity; and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 binding activity. Involved in several processes, including circulatory system development; nephron epithelium morphogenesis; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of NF-kappaB transcription factor activity; positive regulation of branching involved in ureteric bud morphogenesis; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in extracellular space. Colocalizes with cell surface. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; embryo mesenchyme; limb bud; neural ectoderm; and skeleton. Orthologous to human GREM1 (gremlin 1, DAN family BMP antagonist).
