Summary
Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including adherens junction organization; positive regulation of cardiac muscle cell differentiation; and regulation of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptor internalization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of keratinocyte proliferation; positive regulation of aorta morphogenesis; and vasculature development. Located in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and plasma membrane. Is integral component of postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; sensory organ; and urinary system. Orthologous to human EFNB2 (ephrin B2).

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.
