Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
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).
