PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	a relatively short N terminus
	a C terminal "core" region made of four repeats homolog to the endonexin fold

HOMOLOGY

interspecies

homolog to murine Anxa8

Homologene

FAMILY

calcium dependent phospholipid binding protein family

CATEGORY

regulatory , signaling

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,membrane
	intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,endosome
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic

basic FUNCTION	vascular anticoagulation, indirect inhibitor of the thromboplastin specific complex involved in blood coagulation cascade
	regulates late endosome organization and function
	is a gene strongly induced late in osteoclast differentiation and a protein that regulates formation of the cell characteristic actin ring
	might play an important role in calcium fluctuation-mediated HIF1A transcriptional activation and cell viability
	controls leukocyte recruitment to activated endothelial cells via cell surface delivery of CD63

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule	metal binding, other,
	Ca2+
	phospholipid

protein	ANXA2, ANXA8, and ANXA9 interacted with proAREG and ADAM17 on the cell surface
	ANXA2, ANXA8, ANXA9, play an essential role in the ADAM17-mediated ectodomain shedding of EGFR ligands

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

Anxa8 expression in the mouse mammary gland was strong during pre-puberty before the expansion of the rudimentary ductal network and was limited to a distinct subpopulation of ductal luminal epithelial cells
