Summary: Predicted to enable molecular adaptor activity. Involved in negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; negative regulation of neuron projection development; and nervous system development. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of axon extension and negative regulation of hippocampal neuron apoptotic process. Located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; future brain; neural retina; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human DRAXIN (dorsal inhibitory axon guidance protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
