Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable cell adhesion mediator activity; integrin binding activity; and primary methylamine oxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to glucose stimulus; chorio-allantoic fusion; and heterophilic cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules. Located in apical plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; embryo mesenchyme; extraembryonic component; heart; and hemolymphoid system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gastrointestinal system disease and hypertension. Orthologous to human VCAM1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule 1).
