Function |
May play a scavenger role by digesting biologically active peptidoglycan (PGN) into biologically inactive fragments. Has no direct bacteriolytic activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14506276}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Secreted. Membrane.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Strongly expressed in liver and fetal liver, and secreted into serum. Expressed to a much lesser extent in transverse colon, lymph nodes, heart, thymus, pancreas, descending colon, stomach and testis. Isoform 2 is not detected in the liver or serum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11461926, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16054449}.
