Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)

Enables extracellular matrix binding activity and glycosaminoglycan binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of autophagy. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of mitochondrial depolarization; positive regulation of mitochondrial fission; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and congenital stromal corneal dystrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast carcinoma; congenital stromal corneal dystrophy; and high grade glioma. Orthologous to human DCN (decorin).
