Ssc5d Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables fibronectin binding activity; laminin binding activity; and scavenger receptor activity. Involved in negative regulation of interleukin-8 production and response to bacterium. Acts upstream of or within defense response and regulation of interleukin-8 production. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; forelimb; genitourinary system; and immune system. Orthologous to human SSC5D (scavenger receptor cysteine rich family member with 5 domains). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ssc5d often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
