UniProtKB description:  Cell surface receptor that plays a functionally redundant role in the inhibition of neurite outgrowth mediated by MAG (PubMed:15673660). Plays a functionally redundant role in postnatal brain development. Contributes to normal axon migration across the brain midline and normal formation of the corpus callosum. Does not seem to play a significant role in regulating axon regeneration in the adult central nervous system (By similarity). Protects motoneurons against apoptosis; protection against apoptosis is probably mediated by MAG (PubMed:26335717). Like other family members, plays a role in restricting the number dendritic spines and the number of synapses that are formed during brain development (PubMed:22325200). Signaling mediates activation of Rho and downstream reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:22325200).
