    Summary
    Enables identical protein binding activity and insulin-like growth factor II binding activity. Involved in cell migration and positive regulation of stress-activated MAPK cascade. Part of insulin-like growth factor binary complex. Implicated in obesity. Biomarker of breast cancer; in situ carcinoma; leiomyoma; and neovascular inflammatory vitreoretinopathy.

    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.
