Summary: Predicted to enable chemorepellent activity; integrin binding activity; and semaphorin receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; generation of neurons; and positive regulation of macrophage cytokine production. Predicted to act upstream of or within axon extension; olfactory lobe development; and positive regulation of protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane.

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.
