SEMA4F

This gene encodes a transmembrane class IV semaphorin family protein, which plays a role in neural development. This gene may be involved in neurogenesis in prostate cancer, the development of neurofibromas, and breast cancer tumorigenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

sema domain, immunoglobulin domain (Ig), TM domain, and short cytoplasmic domain

Probable cell surface receptor that regulates oligodendroglial precursor cell migration (By similarity).
Might also regulate differentiation of oligodendroglial precursor cells (By similarity).
Has growth cone collapse activity against retinal ganglion-cell axons (By similarity).
