This family member interacts with other nectin-like proteins and with afadin, a filamentous actin-binding protein involved in the regulation of directional motility, cell proliferation and survival. This gene plays a role in ocular development involving the ciliary body. Mutations in this gene are believed to result in congenital ocular defects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]. * **UniProt Summary**: Plays a role in cell-cell adhesion through heterophilic trans-interactions with nectin-like proteins or nectins, such as trans-interaction with NECTIN2 at Sertoli-spermatid junctions. Trans-interaction with PVR induces activation of CDC42 and RAC small G proteins through common signaling molecules such as SRC and RAP1. Also involved in the formation of cell-cell junctions, including adherens junctions and synapses. Induces endocytosis- mediated down-regulation of PVR from the cell surface, resulting in reduction of cell movement and proliferation. Plays a role in the morphology of the ciliary body. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16216929}. |C2-set 2| |I-set| |V-set| |protein localization to cell junction| |apical junction complex| |cell-cell contact zone| |lens morphogenesis in camera-type eye| |hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse| |heterophilic cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules| |retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye| |integral component of postsynaptic density membrane| |establishment of protein localization to plasma membrane| |cell adhesion molecule binding| |lens development in camera-type eye| |adherens junction organization| |cell-cell adherens junction| |camera-type eye morphogenesis| |retina development in camera-type eye| |eye morphogenesis| |spermatid development| |spermatid differentiation| |homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules| |fertilization| |cell-cell junction| |protein localization to plasma membrane| |signaling receptor activity| |cell junction organization| |protein localization to cell periphery| |germ cell development| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |cell-cell adhesion via plasma-membrane adhesion molecules| |establishment of protein localization to membrane| |axon| |camera-type eye development| |cellular process involved in reproduction in multicellular organism| |eye development| |visual system development| |sensory system development| |dendrite| |protein localization to membrane| |cell-cell adhesion| |spermatogenesis| |sensory organ development| |male gamete generation| |developmental process involved in reproduction| |gamete generation| |multicellular organismal reproductive process| |sexual reproduction| |multicellular organism reproduction| |protein homodimerization activity| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |animal organ morphogenesis| |multi-organism reproductive process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |cellular protein localization| |cellular macromolecule localization| |establishment of protein localization| |cell development| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
