ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggested that this gene may be essential for mesoderm formation and subsequent organization of axial structures in early embryonic development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
NODAL: Essential for mesoderm formation and axial patterning during embryonic development. Defects in NODAL are the cause of visceral heterotaxy autosomal type 5 (HTX5). A form of visceral heterotaxy, a complex disorder due to disruption of the normal left-right asymmetry of the thoracoabdominal organs. It results in an abnormal arrangement of visceral organs, and a wide variety of congenital defects. Clinical features of visceral heterotaxy autosomal type 5 include situs inversus viscerum or situs ambiguus, congenital heart defect, transposition of the great vessels ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, truncuscommunis, and dextrocardia. Belongs to the TGF-beta family. Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Secreted; Cytokine; Secreted, signal peptide; Cell development/differentiation. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 10q22.1. Cellular Component: extracellular space. Molecular Function: cytokine activity; growth factor activity; morphogen activity; receptor agonist activity; transforming growth factor beta receptor binding. Biological Process: axial mesodermal cell fate specification; BMP signaling pathway; brain development; cell migration involved in gastrulation; digestive tract morphogenesis; embryonic cranial skeleton morphogenesis; embryonic pattern specification; embryonic placenta development; embryonic process involved in female pregnancy; floor plate morphogenesis; formation of anatomical boundary; heart looping; liver development; maternal placenta development; maternal process involved in parturition; mesendoderm development; negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; neural fold formation; placenta development; polarity specification of proximal/distal axis; positive regulation of activin receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of angiogenesis; positive regulation of caspase activity; positive regulation of cell-cell adhesion; positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation; positive regulation of transcription factor activity; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; regulation of gastrulation; repression of premature neural plate formation; stem cell maintenance; trophectodermal cellular morphogenesis; vasculature development.
