Chn1 - chimerin 1

Enables ephrin receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including ephrin receptor signaling pathway; motor neuron axon guidance; and regulation of GTPase activity. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and immune system. Used to study Duane retraction syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Duane retraction syndrome. Orthologous to human CHN1 (chimerin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
