Summary: Predicted to enable fibronectin binding activity; myosin light chain binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in cellular response to nerve growth factor stimulus and nerve development. Located in Schmidt-Lanterman incisure; mesaxon; and myelin sheath abaxonal region. Biomarker of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and ocular hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in juvenile glaucoma; low tension glaucoma; ocular hypertension; open-angle glaucoma; and primary open angle glaucoma. Orthologous to human MYOC (myocilin).

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.
