MEGF11


Description

The MEGF11 (multiple EGF like domains 11) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 15.

MEGF11 may play a crucial role in maintaining the organized arrangement of different neuron types within the retina. This protein potentially mediates a repulsive interaction between neurons of the same type, ensuring an even distribution of these cells across the retinal surface. This arrangement, known as a mosaic, is essential for providing all parts of the visual field with a complete set of neural processing components.

MEGF11 is also known as -.
