C1qtnf9 - C1q and tumor necrosis factor related protein 9

Enables hormone activity and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including energy homeostasis; negative regulation of cell size; and positive regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in adipose tissue; epididymal fat pad; and serum. Orthologous to human C1QTNF9 (C1q and TNF related 9) and C1QTNF9B (C1q and TNF related 9B).
