This gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in the regulation of the complement cascade. Binding of the encoded protein to complement proteins accelerates their decay, thereby disrupting the cascade and preventing damage to host cells. Antigens present on this protein constitute the Cromer blood group system (CROM). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The predominant transcript variant encodes a membrane-bound protein, but alternatively spliced transcripts may produce soluble proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
A study in C. elegans demonstrated that the intracellular receptor DAF-12 biochemically binds specific genomic response elements to regulate numerous target genes, with in vitro genomic selection identifying 26 distinct binding fragments and quantitative PCR confirming DAF-12-dependent regulation of at least 40 target genes, showing stage-specific and program-specific roles in reproductive development and dauer formation [Shostak et al. DOI:10.1101/gad.1218504]. A study in mice demonstrated that the protein Calretinin, an interneuron subtype marker, exhibited significantly increased colocalization with the neuronal activation marker c-Fos in the contralateral primary somatosensory cortex one hour after a hind paw burn injury [Erdei et al. DOI:10.3390/ijms26083538].
