These proteins are synthesized as prepropeptides, cleaved, and then processed into dimeric proteins. This protein may act as an important signaling molecule within the trabecular meshwork and optic nerve head, and may play a potential role in glaucoma pathogenesis. This gene is differentially regulated during the formation of various tumors.
These proteins are initially formed as precursor peptides, then split and reorganized into dimeric proteins. This protein may play a significant role in signaling within the trabecular meshwork and optic nerve head, possibly influencing glaucoma progression. The expression of this gene is modified during tumor development.
