Cntn4 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be involved in brain development; negative regulation of neuron differentiation; and neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region; plasma membrane; and side of membrane. Predicted to be active in neuron projection. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; and retina. Orthologous to human CNTN4 (contactin 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cntn4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
