    Summary
    Predicted to enable beta-catenin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; negative regulation of wound healing; and regulation of polarized epithelial cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell adhesion. Predicted to be located in basolateral plasma membrane and cell surface. Predicted to be active in adherens junction; cell-cell contact zone; and cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be spanning component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and spinal cord. Orthologous to human AJAP1 (adherens junctions associated protein 1).

    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.
