    Summary
    Enables choline binding activity and choline transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in choline transport and transport across blood-brain barrier. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including brain development; endothelial tip cell fate specification; and in utero embryonic development. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system and yolk sac. Used to study proliferative vasculopathy and hydranencephaly-hydrocephaly syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in proliferative vasculopathy and hydranencephaly-hydrocephaly syndrome. Orthologous to human FLVCR2 (FLVCR choline and putative heme transporter 2).

    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.
