Predicted to enable several functions, including RAGE receptor binding activity; S100 protein binding activity; and metal ion binding activity. Involved in learning or memory. Acts upstream of or within memory and regulation of neuronal synaptic plasticity. Located in cytoplasm; neuronal cell body; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; aspergillosis; and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human S100B (S100 calcium binding protein B).
