Summary: Enables laminin-1 binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron remodeling and regulation of branching involved in salivary gland morphogenesis by extracellular matrix-epithelial cell signaling. Located in basement membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; connective tissue; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human NTN4 (netrin 4).

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.
