Gene: TNR

Alternate names for this Gene: TN-R

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the tenascin family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins. The encoded protein is restricted to the central nervous system. The protein may play a role in neurite outgrowth, neural cell adhesion and modulation of sodium channel function. It is a constituent of perineuronal nets.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1q25.1

Description of this Gene: tenascin R

Type of Gene: protein-coding
