Igfbp7 - insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7

Predicted to enable insulin-like growth factor binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Acts upstream of or within inner ear development. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; eye; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human IGFBP7 (insulin like growth factor binding protein 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
