Function

Extracellular matrix protein implicated in guidance of migrating neurons as well as axons during development, synaptic plasticity as well as neuronal regeneration. Promotes neurite outgrowth from cortical neurons grown on a monolayer of astrocytes. Ligand for integrins alpha-8/beta-1, alpha-9/beta-1, alpha-V/beta-3 and alpha-V/beta-6.

Subcellular Localization

Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix.

Disease Associations

Deafness, autosomal dominant, 56 (DFNA56) [MIM:615629]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. DFNA56 is characterized by progressive hearing impairment with post-lingual onset. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23936043}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
