The encoded membrane-bound protein localizes to the cell surface, where it forms aggregates that repel neuronal processes of the same cell type. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]. * **UniProt Summary**: Cell adhesion molecule that plays a role in neuronal self-avoidance (PubMed:11453658). Promotes repulsion between specific neuronal processes of either the same cell or the same subtype of cells. Promotes both isoneuronal self-avoidance for creating an orderly neurite arborization in retinal rod bipolar cells and heteroneuronal self-avoidance to maintain mosaic spacing between AII amacrine cells (By similarity). Adhesion molecule that promotes lamina-specific synaptic connections in the retina: expressed in specific subsets of interneurons and retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and promotes synaptic connectivity via homophilic interactions (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E1C8P7, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q4VA61, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11453658}. |I-set| |V-set| |fn3| |ig| |dendrite self-avoidance| |cell-cell adhesion mediator activity| |cell fate determination| |neuron recognition| |dorsal/ventral pattern formation| |embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis| |embryonic skeletal system development| |homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules| |cell recognition| |skeletal system morphogenesis| |cell fate commitment| |cell-cell adhesion via plasma-membrane adhesion molecules| |axon guidance| |neuron projection guidance| |synapse| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |axon| |regionalization| |axonogenesis| |axon development| |cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation| |embryonic organ development| |pattern specification process| |neuron projection morphogenesis| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection morphogenesis| |cell projection morphogenesis| |skeletal system development| |cell-cell adhesion| |cell part morphogenesis| |cell junction| |chemotaxis| |taxis| |cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |embryonic morphogenesis| |cell surface| |chordate embryonic development| |embryo development ending in birth or egg hatching| |neuron projection development| |cell morphogenesis| |brain development| |head development| |neuron development| |cellular component morphogenesis| |protein homodimerization activity| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |animal organ morphogenesis| |embryo development| |central nervous system development| |neuron differentiation| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |cell projection organization| |locomotion| |generation of neurons| |movement of cell or subcellular component| |extracellular space| |neurogenesis| |cell development| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
