| Function |
Induces bone resorption, acting probably through a signaling cascade which results in the secretion of factor(s) enhancing osteoclast formation and activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10092216}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000305}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed. Present in osteoclasts (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10092216}.
