Function |
May regulate the mosaic spacing of specific neuron subtypes in the retina through homotypic retinal neuron repulsion. Mosaics provide a mechanism to distribute each cell type evenly across the retina, ensuring that all parts of the visual field have access to a full set of processing elements (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17498693}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17498693}. Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17498693}; Single- pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17498693}. Note=Forms an irregular, mosaic-like adhesion pattern in region of the cell that becomes firmely fixed to the substrate. Localized to protruding lamellipodia. Does not localize with MEGF10.
