GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 1308074
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Plxna4
Name: plexin A4
Acc ID: GO:0021602
Term: cranial nerve morphogenesis
Definition: The process in which the anatomical structure of the cranial nerves are generated and organized. The cranial nerves are composed of twelve pairs of nerves that emanate from the nervous tissue of the hindbrain. These nerves are sensory, motor, or mixed in nature, and provide the motor and general sensory innervation of the head, neck and viscera. They mediate vision, hearing, olfaction and taste and carry the parasympathetic innervation of the autonomic ganglia that control visceral functions.

Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
