Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the intestinal epithelium. |
Post Translational Modifications | N-glycosylated. O-glycosylated.contains chondroitin sulfate glycans which can be more or less sulfated. Phosphorylated.activation of PKC results in the dephosphorylation of Ser-742 (constitutive phosphorylation site), and the phosphorylation of Ser-708. |
Function | Cell-surface receptor that plays a role in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration, helping them to sense and respond to changes in the tissue microenvironment. Participates thereby in a wide variety of cellular functions including the activation, recirculation and homing of T-lymphocytes, hematopoiesis, inflammation and response to bacterial infection. Engages, through its ectodomain, extracellular matrix components such as hyaluronan/HA, collagen, growth factors, cytokines or proteases and serves as a platform for signal transduction by assembling, via its cytoplasmic domain, protein complexes containing receptor kinases and membrane proteases. Such effectors include PKN2, the RhoGTPases RAC1 and RHOA, Rho-kinases and phospholipase C that coordinate signaling pathways promoting calcium mobilization and actin-mediated cytoskeleton reorganization essential for cell migration and adhesion. |
