Gene Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including copper ion binding activity; heparin binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in liver development. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic stress granule; growth cone; and neuronal cell body. Predicted to be part of angiogenin-PRI complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Biomarker of transient cerebral ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetic retinopathy; myocardial infarction; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human ANG (angiogenin).
