Rat Meteorin, METRN ELISA Kit, 96T sgRNA customized design A pseudogene of this gene

A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 13

Plays a role in APP processing following cleavage and activation by ADAM30 which leads to APP degradation (PubMed: 27333034)

It functions as a chemoattractant

suggesting a further role in the maintenance of telomeric stability and the prevention of chromosomal end fusion (PubMed: 12426399)

and probably also for SIX2

Rat Meteorin, METRN ELISA Kit, 96T sgRNA customized design A pseudogene of this geneInvolved in both glial cell differentiation and axonal network formation during neurogenesis. Promotes astrocyte differentiation and transforms cerebellar astrocytes into radial glia. Also induces axonal extension in small and intermediate neurons of sensory ganglia by activating nearby satellite glia (By similarity).
