Summary: Predicted to enable cell-cell adhesion mediator activity. Predicted to be involved in homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules; neuron development; and plasma membrane lactate transport. Predicted to be located in synapse. Predicted to be active in axon and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ectoderm; egg cylinder; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human EMB (embigin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Osteomacs promote maintenance of murine hematopoiesis through megakaryocyte-induced upregulation of Embigin and CD166.
Title: Osteomacs promote maintenance of murine hematopoiesis through megakaryocyte-induced upregulation of Embigin and CD166.
embigin enhances neural cell adhesion molecule-dependent neuromuscular adhesion and thereby modulates neuromuscular junction formation and plasticity.
Title: A novel role for embigin to promote sprouting of motor nerve terminals at the neuromuscular junction.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
