== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Plays an inhibitory role on natural killer (NK) cells and T-cell functions upon binding to their non-MHC ligands. May mediate missing self recognition by binding to a highly conserved site on classical cadherins, enabling it to monitor expression of E-cadherin/CDH1, N-cadherin/CDH2 and R-cadherin/CDH4 on target cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19604491}.
