What pLDDT means and how to read it

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

Subunit structure

Self-associates. Interacts via its Ig-like V-type domain with NECTIN1 Ig-like V-type domain. Interacts via its C-terminus with AFDN

Subcellular location

Cell membrane, Cell junction, adherens junction, Secreted

Disease associations
