Product Description: | IgSF11 is a member of the immunoglobulin
superfamily. It has a 23-residue signal peptide, 3 potential extracellular
N-linked glycosylation sites, an extracellular V-type Ig-like domain, an
extracellular C2-type Ig-like domain, and a 170-residue cytoplasmic tail with a
C-terminal PDZ-interacting motif (1). IgSF11 functions as an adhesion molecule
with homophilic molecular interaction (2). It is a 52-kD glycoprotein that is
expressed highest in testis, and lower in brain, kidney, and adrenal gland.
Within brain, expression in the corpus callosum was comparable to that in
testis (1). It is suggested to be a diagnostic and/or clinical target for
gastric cancer (3).
