| Subcellular Location | Secreted |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the meteorin family. |
| Tissue Specificity | NA |
| Post Translational Modification | NA |
| Function | Involved in both glial cell differentiation and axonal network formation during neurogenesis. Promotes astrocyte differentiation and transforms cerebellar astrocytes into radial glia. Also induces axonal extension in small and intermediate neurons of sensory ganglia by activating nearby satellite glia. |
