ADIPOQ

Enables hormone activity; identical protein binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including detection of oxidative stress; regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; and regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including brown fat cell differentiation; positive regulation of D-glucose import; and regulation of small molecule metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum and extracellular space.
