Gene Summary

Gene Symbol NTN4   Gene   UCSC   Ensembl
Aliases PRO3091
Gene name netrin 4
Alternate names netrin-4, beta-netrin, hepar-derived netrin-like protein,
Gene location 12q22 (95790757: 95657806)     Exons: 10     NC_000012.12
Gene summary(Entrez) This gene encodes a member of the netrin family of proteins, which function in various biological processes including axon guidance, tumorogenesis, and angiogenesis. Netrins are laminin-related proteins that have an N-terminal laminin-type domain, epidermal growth factor-like repeat domain, and a positively charged heparin-binding domain at the C-terminus. The protein encoded by this gene is involved in processes including neurite growth and migration, angiogenesis and mural cell adhesion to endothelial cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
