Description |

|---|---|
| Catalyzes calcium-induced ATP-independent rapid bidirectional and non-specific distribution of phospholipids (lipid scrambling or lipid flip-flop) between the inner and outer leaflet of the plasma membrane resulting in collapse of the phospholipid asymmetry which leads to phosphatidylserine externalization on the cell surface (By similarity). Mediates calcium-dependent phosphatidylserine externalization and apoptosis in neurons via its association with TRPC5 (By similarity). Also exhibits magnesium-dependent nuclease activity against double-stranded DNA and RNA but not single-stranded DNA and can enhance DNA decatenation mediated by TOP2A (By similarity). Negatively regulates FcR-mediated phagocytosis in differentiated macrophages (By similarity). May contribute to cytokine-regulated cell proliferation and differentiation (By similarity). {By SimilarityUniProtKB:O15162, By SimilarityUniProtKB:Q9JJ00}. | Assigned Ontology terms |
