Background
This gene encodes an antagonist of bone morphogenetic protein 4. The encoded protein may play a role in topographic retinotectal projection and in the regulation of retinal angiogenesis in response to hypoxia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009],
Function
function:Antagonizes the function of BMP4 by binding to it and preventing its interaction with receptors. Alters the fate commitment of neural stem cells from gliogenesis to neurogenesis. Contributes to neuronal differentiation of neural stem cells in the brain by preventing the adoption of a glial fate. May play a crucial role in dorsoventral axis formation. May play a role in embyonic bone formation (By similarity). May also play an important role in regulating retinal angiogenesis trough modulation of BMP4 actions in endothelial cells.,induction:By hypoxia in retinal pericytes.,similarity:Contains 3 VWFC domains.,tissue specificity:Expressed in retinal pericytes.,
