Function |
May be involved in cell-cell interaction processes and in cell adhesion.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell junction. Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Note=Found at cell-cell boundaries and probably at cell-matrix boundaries.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in the brain and neuro-glial cells.
