May promote neurite outgrowth of developing thalamic neurons.
Subcellular locations: Postsynaptic cell membrane
Highly expressed in the cerebral cortex, including frontal, parietal and occipital lobes. Putamen, amygdala, hippocampus and medulla oblongata show moderate expression. Caudate nucleus and thalamus express small amounts, whereas other brain regions show very weak or no expression.
