Summary: Enables cell-cell adhesion mediator activity; lipopolysaccharide binding activity; and membrane destabilizing activity. Involved in several processes, including ferroptosis; leukocyte chemotaxis; and positive regulation of defense response. Acts upstream of or within hyaloid vascular plexus regression and positive regulation of cell-matrix adhesion. Located in extracellular region; filopodium membrane; and synaptic membrane. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including body cavity or lining; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and vertebral axis musculature. Orthologous to human NINJ1 (ninjurin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
