Gene Summary

Enables nerve growth factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including myelination; positive regulation of glial cell differentiation; and response to immobilization stress. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic vesicle. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and synaptic vesicle. Biomarker of alcohol use disorder; borna disease; and status epilepticus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and asthma. Orthologous to human NTF3 (neurotrophin 3).
