关于 PLXNA3

功能概要

该基因编码丛蛋白类蛋白质的一个成员。编码的蛋白质是一种 3 类信号素受体，可能参与细胞骨架重塑以及细胞凋亡。对斑马鱼中相似基因的研究表明，它对于神经系统发育中的轴突寻路非常重要。该基因可能与肿瘤进展有关。[RefSeq 提供，2013 年 8 月]

This gene encodes a member of the plexin class of proteins. The encoded protein is a class 3 semaphorin receptor, and may be involved in cytoskeletal remodeling and as well as Apoptosis. Studies of a similar gene in zebrafish suggest that it is important for axon pathfinding in the developing nervous system. This gene may be associated with tumor progression.
