Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Provides, together with MAGI1, an adhesion machinery at tight junctions, which may regulate the permeability of kidney glomerulus and small intestinal epithelial cells. Mediates calcium-independent homophilic cell adhesion. In testis, it may function as a cell adhesion molecule rather than a tight-junction protein. It may participate in the adhesion between spermatogonia- spermatogonia, spermatogonia-Sertoli cells, and Sertoli cells- Sertoli cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
