Summary
Predicted to enable brain-derived neurotrophic factor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation and regulation of BMP signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of collateral sprouting; and negative regulation of dendritic spine development. Predicted to be located in secretory granule. Predicted to be active in extracellular region. Orthologous to human FSTL4 (follistatin like 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 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.
