Description
Predicted to have growth factor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of neuron apoptotic process; and nervous system development. Predicted to localize to several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and synaptic vesicle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including IgA glomerulonephritis; end stage renal failure; hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 5; interstitial cystitis; and neurogenic bladder. Is expressed in several structures, including alar plate midbrain region; head mesenchyme; nervous system; periderm; and segmental plate. Orthologous to human NGF (nerve growth factor).
