Predicted to enable CXCR3 chemokine receptor binding activity and chemokine activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; neutrophil chemotaxis; and positive regulation of release of sequestered calcium ion into cytosol. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including defense response to virus; positive regulation of myoblast differentiation; and positive regulation of myoblast fusion. Predicted to be located in external side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human CXCL9 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 9).
