Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables chemorepellent activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway; and ventral trunk neural crest cell migration. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axon guidance; negative regulation of axon extension involved in axon guidance; and trunk neural crest cell migration. Located in extracellular space. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SEMA3F (semaphorin 3F).
