Summary
Predicted to enable cytokine activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; positive regulation of tendon cell differentiation; and transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including morphogenesis of an epithelium; nervous system development; and positive regulation of neuron differentiation. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human GDF7 (growth differentiation factor 7).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
