| Function |
Binds EGFR, the EGF receptor, inducing EGFR autophosphorylation and the activation of downstream signaling pathways. May play a role in cell adhesion and migration. May function as a negative regulator of chondrocyte differentiation. In the olfactory epithelium, it may regulate glial cell migration, differentiation and the ability of glial cells to support neuronal neurite outgrowth. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19804359, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19887559, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20005202}.

| Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space {ECO:0000250}. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000250}. Note=Localizes to the lamina propria underneath the olfactory epithelium. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
In the eye, associated with photoreceptor outer and inner segment regions, the nerve fiber layer, outer nuclear layer and inner and outer plexiform layers of the retina. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12242346, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20005202}.
