Species: Homo sapiens
About SEMA6B
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 262 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 18.7), spleen (RPKM 8.6) and 15 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the semaphorin family, a group of proteins characterized by the presence of a conserved semaphorin (sema) domain. Whereas some semaphorins are transmembrane proteins, Others are secreted. Semaphorins play a major role in axon guidance. The protein encoded by this gene may be involved in both peripheral and central nervous system development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
