| Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 18187 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables semaphorin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; outflow tract septum morphogenesis; and ventral trunk neural crest cell migration. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axon guidance; cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; and trunk neural crest cell migration. Located in axon. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; and sensory organ. Used to study autism spectrum disorder. Orthologous to human NRP2 (neuropilin 2). PHENOTYPE: Nullizygous mice may exhibit pre- or postnatal lethality, reduced fertility, hydrocephalus, aberrant sensory innervation, reduced interneuron count, seizure susceptibility and abnormal lymphangiogenesis. Homozygotes for a gene trap allele show abnormal neuronal development and axonal trajectories. [provided by MGI curators] |
