Tissue Specificity | Predominantly expressed in placenta. Not detected in normal breast epithelium but expressed in breast carcinoma. |
Post Translational Modifications | The soluble form is produced by proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface (shedding), probably by ADAM17/TACE. |
Function | Seems to be involved in cell adhesion through trans-homophilic and -heterophilic interactions, the latter including specifically interactions with NECTIN1. Does not act as receptor for alpha-herpesvirus entry into cells. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for measles virus. |
