Gene ID: 16009 | Gene type: protein coding

About Igfbp3

Summary

Enables fibronectin binding activity and insulin-like growth factor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including osteoblast differentiation; positive regulation of signal transduction; and type B pancreatic cell proliferation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early embryo; gonad; and limb. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; Turner syndrome; diabetes mellitus (multiple); prostate cancer; and transitional cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human IGFBP3 (Insulin like growth factor binding protein 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
