P14

General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term	P14
UniProt ID	S10A9_RAT
Name	Migration inhibitory factor-related protein 14 Protein S100-A9 S100 calcium-binding protein A9 Myeloid-related protein 14 MRP-14 Calgranulin-B p14
Gene Names	S100a9 Synonyms:Mrp14
Taxonomy	Rattus norvegicus

General annotation

Function	Calcium-binding protein. Has antimicrobial activity towards bacteria and fungi. Important for resistance to invasion by pathogenic bacteria. Up-regulates transcription of genes that are under the control of NF-kappa-B. Plays a role in the development of endotoxic shock in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Promotes tubulin polymerization when unphosphorylated. Promotes phagocyte migration and infiltration of granulocytes at sites of wounding. Plays a role as pro- inflammatory mediator in acute and chronic inflammation and up- regulates the release of IL8 and cell-surface expression of ICAM1. Extracellular calprotectin binds to target cells and promotes apoptosis. Antimicrobial and proapoptotic activity is inhibited by zinc ions (By similarity). Stimulates proliferation of fibroblast cells as both a monomer and a homodimer. May act as a mitogen during chronic inflammation.
Subcellular location	Secreted (By similarity). Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity). Note=Associates with tubulin filaments in activated monocytes. Targeted to the cell surface upon calcium influx. Released from blood leukocytes upon exposure to CSF2/GM- CSF, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and during inflammatory processes (By similarity).
