Summary

This gene encodes a stromal cell derived factor that is a member of the CREC protein family. The encoded protein contains six EF-hand motifs and calcium-binding motifs. This protein localizes to the Golgi lumen and may be involved in regulating calcium dependent cellular activities. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

Forensic Context

A study in humans using integrative machine learning on multi-level molecular data from monozygotic twin pairs identified that the SDF4 gene, specifically at a CpG site, exhibited increased methylation in heavier twins who consumed more sucrose, associating it with dietary patterns in the context of obesity [Kibble et al. DOI:10.1098/rsos.200872].
