Fstl4 - follistatin-like 4 Gene

Also Known as SPIG1; mKIAA1061; B230374F23Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 320027

Summary

Enables brain-derived neurotrophic factor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of collateral sprouting; and negative regulation of dendritic spine development. Located in secretory granule. Is expressed in medulla oblongata basal plate mantle layer; neural retina; olfactory cortex mantle layer; pons mantle layer; and telencephalon mantle layer. Orthologous to human FSTL4 (Follistatin like 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
