Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Involved in cellular response to retinoic acid; central nervous system neuron differentiation; and negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human BRINP2 (BMP/retinoic acid inducible neural specific 2).
