    Summary
    Predicted to enable Roundabout binding activity and heparin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including endocardial progenitor cell migration to the midline involved in heart field formation; negative regulation of axon extension; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including axial mesoderm; forebrain neural tube; hypochord; nervous system; and oocyte. Orthologous to human SLIT2 (slit guidance ligand 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
