Enables integrin binding activity and peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity. Involved in platelet aggregation. Acts upstream of or within neuron differentiation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and skeletal muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cholangiocarcinoma and human immunodeficiency virus infectious disease. Orthologous to human PPIA (peptidylprolyl isomerase A).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene tend to develop blepharitis (about 30% of mice) as well as inflammation in other organs. Some background dependent embryonic lethality occurs but adults are robust and live normal life spans. [provided by MGI curators]
