    Summary
    Predicted to enable chaperone binding activity. Involved in several processes, including chondrocyte proliferation; positive regulation of dendritic spine development; and response to estradiol. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including late endosome; lysosomal membrane; and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be active in extracellular region. Biomarker of status epilepticus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dementia (multiple); neurodegenerative disease (multiple); neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 11; and primary progressive multiple sclerosis. Orthologous to human GRN (granulin precursor). [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.
