Function
Tetranectin binds to plasminogen and to isolated kringle 4. May be involved in the packaging of molecules destined for exocytosis. Plays a role in retinal function.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Found in plasma
Disease Association: Macular dystrophy, retinal, 4 (MCDR4) : An autosomal dominant retinal disease characterized by late-onset macular degeneration, with multiple drusen-like deposits, macular geographic atrophy, and choroidal neovascularization. Patients also exhibit extensive retinal dysfunction with impaired rod function. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
