Promotes VEGF-dependent neovascularization (By similarity). Contributes to phagocytic removal of apoptotic cells in many tissues. Specific ligand for the alpha-v/beta-3 and alpha-v/beta-5 receptors. Also binds to phosphatidylserine-enriched cell surfaces in a receptor-independent manner. Zona pellucida-binding protein which may play a role in gamete interaction. Binds specifically to rotavirus and inhibits its replication. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19204935}. |F5 F8 type C| |EGF| |phosphatidylethanolamine binding| |extrinsic component of plasma membrane| |apoptotic cell clearance| |extracellular vesicle| |phosphatidylserine binding| |positive regulation of phagocytosis| |regulation of phagocytosis| |phagocytosis, recognition| |phagocytosis, engulfment| |integrin binding| |extracellular matrix structural constituent| |plasma membrane invagination| |single fertilization| |membrane invagination| |fertilization| |cell recognition| |endoplasmic reticulum lumen| |angiogenesis| |phagocytosis| |post-translational protein modification| |collagen-containing extracellular matrix| |external side of plasma membrane| |blood vessel morphogenesis| |blood vessel development| |vasculature development| |cardiovascular system development| |regulation of vesicle-mediated transport| |endocytosis| |tube morphogenesis| |import into cell| |sexual reproduction| |tube development| |membrane organization| |circulatory system development| |anatomical structure formation involved in morphogenesis| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |positive regulation of transport| |multi-organism reproductive process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |extracellular space| |regulation of transport| |extracellular region| |vesicle-mediated transport| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp298|Sucrose 20000μM R06 exp298]]|2.13| |[[:results:exp292|Menadione 5μM R06 exp292]]|2.57| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
