[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/AFAD_MOUSE AFAD_MOUSE] Belongs to an adhesion system, probably together with the E-cadherin-catenin system, which plays a role in the organization of homotypic, interneuronal and heterotypic cell-cell adherens junctions (AJs). Nectin- and actin-filament-binding protein that connects nectin to the actin cytoskeleton. May play a key role in the organization of epithelial structures of the embryonic ectoderm.<ref>PMID:10477764</ref> [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NECT3_MOUSE NECT3_MOUSE] Plays a role in cell-cell adhesion through heterophilic trans-interactions with nectins-like or other nectins, such as trans-interaction with NECTIN2 at Sertoli-spermatid junctions. Trans-interaction with PVR induces activation of CDC42 and RAC small G proteins through common signaling molecules such as SRC and RAP1. Also involved in the formation of cell-cell junctions, including adherens junctions and synapses. Induces endocytosis-mediated down-regulation of PVR from the cell surface, resulting in reduction of cell movement and proliferation. Plays a role in the morphology of the ciliary body.<ref>PMID:10744716</ref> <ref>PMID:11827984</ref> <ref>PMID:12121624</ref> <ref>PMID:12558799</ref> <ref>PMID:16128743</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
 +
Afadin, a scaffold protein localized in adherens junctions (AJs), links nectins to the actin cytoskeleton. Nectins are the major cell adhesion molecules of AJs. At the initial stage of cell-cell junction formation, the nectin-afadin interaction plays an indispensable role in AJ biogenesis via recruiting and tethering other components. The afadin PDZ domain (AFPDZ) is responsible for binding the cytoplasmic C-terminus of nectins. AFPDZ is a class II PDZ domain member, which prefers ligands containing a class II PDZ-binding motif, X-Phi-X-Phi (Phi, hydrophobic residues); both nectins and other physiological AFPDZ targets contain this class II motif. Here, we report the first crystal structure of the AFPDZ in complex with the nectin-3 C-terminal peptide containing the class II motif. We engineered the nectin-3 C-terminal peptide and AFPDZ to produce an AFPDZ-nectin-3 fusion protein and succeeded in obtaining crystals of this complex as a dimer. This novel dimer interface was created by forming an antiparallel beta sheet between beta2 strands. A major structural change compared with the known AFPDZ structures was observed in the alpha2 helix. We found an approximately 2.5 A-wider ligand-binding groove, which allows the PDZ to accept bulky class II ligands. Apparently, the last three amino acids of the nectin-3 C-terminus were sufficient to bind AFPDZ, in which the two hydrophobic residues are important.
