A similar protein in C. elegans forms long, fine tracks at specific extracellular sites that are involved in many processes such as stabilization of the germline syncytium, anchorage of mechanosensory neurons to the epidermis, and organization of hemidesmosomes in the epidermis. Mutations in this gene may be associated with age-related macular degeneration. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Promotes cleavage furrow maturation during cytokinesis in preimplantation embryos. May play a role in the architecture of adhesive and flexible epithelial cell junctions. May play a role during myocardial remodeling by imparting an effect on cardiac fibroblast migration. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D3YXG0}. |EGF CA| |I-set| |TSP 1| |V-set| |cEGF| |G2F| |ig| |heterophilic cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules| |cleavage furrow| |cell adhesion molecule binding| |basement membrane| |cell-cell adherens junction| |extracellular matrix structural constituent| |cell cortex| |homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules| |signaling receptor activity| |visual perception| |sensory perception of light stimulus| |cell-cell adhesion via plasma-membrane adhesion molecules| |collagen-containing extracellular matrix| |cell division| |cell-cell adhesion| |response to bacterium| |calcium ion binding| |protein homodimerization activity| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |sensory perception| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |cell cycle| |nervous system process| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
