Background
This gene encodes a member of the intermediate filament protein family and is expressed primarily in nerve cells. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011],
Function
developmental stage:Upon terminal neural differentiation, nestin is down-regulated and replaced by neurofilaments.,function:May play a role in the trafficking and distribution of IF proteins and potentially other cellular factors to daughter cells during progenitor cell division.,similarity:Belongs to the intermediate filament family.,subunit:Interacts with FHOD3.,tissue specificity:CNS stem cells.,
