Name: heme binding protein 1
Type: protein-coding
Position: 12,974,867–13,000,310 (−)
Aliases: HBP, HEBP
Ensembl: ENSG00000013583
RefSeq RNA: NM_015987.5
RefSeq protein: NP_057071.2

The full-length protein encoded by this gene is an intracellular tetrapyrrole-binding protein. This protein includes a natural chemoattractant peptide of 21 amino acids at the N-terminus, which is a natural ligand for formyl peptide receptor-like receptor 2 (FPRL2) and promotes calcium mobilization and chemotaxis in monocytes and dendritic cells.
