Description
Predicted to have growth factor activity. Involved in multicellular organismal response to stress and nervous system development. Predicted to localize to several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and synaptic vesicle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including cognitive disorder (multiple); congenital central hypoventilation syndrome; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); obstructive sleep apnea; and status epilepticus. Is expressed in several structures, including blastoderm; digestive system; nervous system; oral region; and pericardial region. Orthologous to human BDNF (brain derived neurotrophic factor).
