Manf - mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor Gene

Also Known as Armet

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 315989

Summary

Predicted to enable sulfatide binding activity. Predicted to be involved in dopaminergic neuron differentiation; neuron projection development; and regulation of response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Predicted to act upstream of or within vasoconstriction of artery involved in ischemic response to lowering of systemic arterial blood pressure. Located in extracellular space and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Colocalizes with endoplasmic reticulum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinsonism; breast cancer; carcinoma (multiple); and pancreatic Cancer. Orthologous to human MANF (mesencephalic astrocyte derived neurotrophic factor).
