Summary
Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within axonal fasciculation; negative regulation of receptor binding activity; and olfactory bulb development. Located in growth cone. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; tooth; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human CRTAC1 (cartilage acidic protein 1).

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.
