Predicted to enable hormone activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of gluconeogenesis; positive regulation of glucose import; and positive regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of inflammatory response; positive regulation of cell communication; and regulation of glucose metabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
