About Ostn

Summary

Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including endochondral bone growth; negative regulation of glucose import; and negative regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in genitourinary system; heart; musculature; and skeleton. Orthologous to human OSTN (osteocrin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
