Proteins/UNIPROT:Q6UWK7
Highly cationic protein that has multiple functions. Acts as a chemotactic factor that mediates lymphocytes recruitment to epithelia through binding and activation of the G protein-coupled receptor GPR15. May be a tumor suppressor; together with SUSD2 has a growth inhibitory effect on colon cancer cells which includes G1 cell cycle arrest. May regulate keratinocyte proliferation. In addition, through activation of Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors (MRGPRs) contributes to pruritogenesis by activating itch-selective sensory neurons and mast cells degranulation..
Has antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Actinomyces spec., and Mycoplasma hominis and lentivirus..
