Summary | This gene encodes a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. The encoded protein has been termed a 'part-time' proteoglycan, as chondroitin sulfate chains appear to be attached to the protein in the developing but not the adult cerebellum and retina. It is thought that this protein plays roles in dendrite branching and synapse formation. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. |
