Brinp1 - bone morphogenic protein/retinoic acid inducible neural specific 1

Involved in cellular response to retinoic acid; negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle; and positive regulation of neuron differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including behavioral fear response; maternal behavior; and short-term memory. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in dendrite; endoplasmic reticulum; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; and submandibular gland primordium. Used to study attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder. Orthologous to human BRINP1 (BMP/retinoic acid inducible neural specific 1).
