Thbd - thrombomodulin

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within female pregnancy. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; lung; and skeleton. Used to study thrombophilia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acute kidney failure; atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome; cerebrovascular disease (multiple); rheumatoid arthritis; and thrombophilia (multiple). Orthologous to human THBD (thrombomodulin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
