Annotation score:3 out of 5

<p>The annotation score provides a heuristic measure of the annotation content of a UniProtKB entry or proteome.

Cooperation and regulatory loops of multiple nodals are essential for mesendoderm patterning in early embryos. Essential for mesoderm formation and axial patterning during embryonic development. Activates the activin-like signaling pathway to induce dorsal and ventral mesoderm in animal cap ectoderm. In addition, also dorsalizes ventral marginal zone (VMZ) tissues during gastrulation. Acts in a downstream signaling cascade via cripto and cer1 to mediate cardiogenesis in embryonic mesoderm. Directs the orientation of the left-right axis by driving the left-specific gene cascade in the left lateral plate mesoderm (By similarity).By similarity

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1.
