== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: This endogenous retroviral envelope protein has retained its original fusogenic properties and participates in trophoblast fusion and the formation of a syncytium during placenta morphogenesis. May induce fusion through binding of SLC1A4 and SLC1A5 (PubMed:10708449, PubMed:12050356, PubMed:23492904). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10708449, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12050356, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23492904}.
No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene.
