Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including Hsp70 protein binding activity; peptidoglycan binding activity; and peptidoglycan immune receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of inflammatory response; negative regulation of natural killer cell differentiation involved in immune response; and negative regulation of type II interferon production. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in alimentary system; craniocervical region bone; genitourinary system; liver; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PGLYRP1 (peptidoglycan recognition protein 1).
