Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Ly6/uPAR family but lacks a GPI-anchoring signal sequence. It is thought that this secreted protein contains antitumor activity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Mal de Meleda, a rare autosomal recessive skin disorder. This gene maps to the same chromosomal region as several members of the Ly6/uPAR family of glycoprotein receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
- UniProt Summary: Has an antitumor activity (PubMed:8742060). Was found to be a marker of late differentiation of the skin. Implicated in maintaining the physiological and structural integrity of the keratinocyte layers of the skin (PubMed:14721776, PubMed:17008884). In vitro down-regulates keratinocyte proliferation; the function may involve the proposed role as modulator of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) activity. In vitro inhibits alpha-7-dependent nAChR currents in an allosteric manner (PubMed:14506129, PubMed:26905431). In T cells may be involved in regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) signaling (PubMed:17286989). Seems to have a immunomodulatory function in the cornea (By similarity). The function may implicate a possible role as a scavenger receptor for PLAU thereby blocking PLAU- dependent functions of PLAUR such as in cell migration and proliferation (PubMed:25168896). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9Z0K7, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14506129, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17286989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26905431, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8742060, ECO:0000305|PubMed:14721776, ECO:0000305|PubMed:17008884}.
