    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, Nov 2024]

    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.
