| Post Translational Modifications | Inducible phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domain. Proteolytically processed. The ectodomain is cleaved, probably by a metalloprotease, to produce a membrane-tethered C-terminal fragment. This fragment is then further processed by the gamma-secretase complex to yield a soluble intracellular domain peptide which can translocate to the nucleus. The intracellular domain peptide is highly labile suggesting that it is targeted for degradation by the proteasome. |
| Function | Cell surface transmembrane ligand for Eph receptors, a family of receptor tyrosine kinases which are crucial for migration, repulsion and adhesion during neuronal, vascular and epithelial development. Binding to Eph receptors residing on adjacent cells leads to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. Shows high affinity for the receptor tyrosine kinase EPHB1/ELK. Can also bind EPHB2 and EPHB3. Binds to, and induces collapse of, commissural axons/growth cones in vitro. May play a role in constraining the orientation of longitudinally projecting axons. |
