Rtn4rl2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Involved in corpus callosum development and negative regulation of neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; membrane raft; and perikaryon. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane; extracellular matrix; and extracellular space. Is expressed in brain; cranial ganglion; and peripheral nervous system. Orthologous to human RTN4RL2 (reticulon 4 receptor like 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Rtn4rl2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
