关于 Hbegf

功能概要

Enables epidermal growth factor receptor binding activity; growth factor activity; and heparin binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of keratinocyte migration; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; and wound healing, spreading of epidermal cells. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation; and regulation of heart contraction. Located in extracellular space. Is integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; heart; oral region gland; telencephalon; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glomerulosclerosis and perinatal necrotizing enterocolitis. Orthologous to human HBEGF (heparin binding EGF like growth factor).
