    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the semaphorin family of proteins that have diverse functions in neuronal development, heart morphogenesis, vascular growth, tumor progression and immune cell regulation. Lack of the encoded protein in some mice causes exencephaly resulting in neonatal lethality. Mice that bypass exencephaly show no obvious behavioral defects but display distinct pigmentation defects. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
