GREM1

Gene
GREM1
Protein
Gremlin-1
Organism
Gallus gallus
Length
184 amino acids
Function
Cytokine that may play a role in the development of the medial pallium and during optic nerve and pecten development by modulating BMP signaling.
Similarity
Belongs to the DAN family.

Protein
Gremlin-1
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
184 amino acids
Function
Cytokine that may play an important role during carcinogenesis and metanephric kidney organogenesis, as a BMP antagonist required for early limb outgrowth and patterning in maintaining the FGF4-SHH feedback loop. Down-regulates the BMP4 signaling in a dose-dependent manner (By similarity). Antagonist of BMP2; inhibits BMP2-mediated differentiation of osteoblasts (in vitro) (PubMed:27036124). Acts as inhibitor of monocyte chemotaxis. Can inhibit the growth or viability of normal cells but not transformed cells when is overexpressed (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the DAN family.
