General annotation (Comments)

Function

Required for left-right (L-R) asymmetry determination of organ systems in mammals. May play a role in endometrial bleeding.

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Mesenchymal cells of the endometrial stroma.

Developmental stage

Transiently expressed before and during menstrual bleeding.

Post-translational modification

The processing of the protein may also occur at the second R-X-X-R site located at AA 132-135. Processing appears to be regulated in a cell-type specific manner.

Involvement in disease

Left-right axis malformations (LRAM) [MIM:601877]: The defect includes left pulmonary isomerism, with cardiac anomalies characterized by complete atrioventricular canal defect and hypoplastic left ventricle, and interrupted inferior vena cava.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the TGF-beta family.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAB53269.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Authors have revised their sequence, but have not submitted the revised DNA sequence.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: O00292-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O00292-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     94-127: Missing.
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
