[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PVR_HUMAN PVR_HUMAN] Mediates NK cell adhesion and triggers NK cell effector functions. Binds two different NK cell receptors: CD96 and CD226. These interactions accumulates at the cell-cell contact site, leading to the formation of a mature immunological synapse between NK cell and target cell. This may trigger adhesion and secretion of lytic granules and IFN-gamma and activate cytoxicity of activated NK cells. May also promote NK cell-target cell modular exchange, and PVR transfer to the NK cell. This transfer is more important in some tumor cells expressing a lot of PVR, and may trigger fratricide NK cell activation, providing tumors with a mechanism of immunoevasion. Plays a role in mediating tumor cell invasion and migration. Serves as a receptor for poliovirus attachment to target cells. May play a role in axonal transport of poliovirus, by targeting virion-PVR-containing endocytic vesicles to the microtubular network through interaction with DYNLT1. This interaction would drive the virus-containing vesicle to the axonal retrograde transport.<ref>PMID:15471548</ref> <ref>PMID:15607800</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PVR_HUMAN PVR_HUMAN] Mediates NK cell adhesion and triggers NK cell effector functions.

| + | Nectins are immunoglobulin superfamily glycoproteins that mediate intercellular adhesion in many vertebrate tissues. Homophilic and heterophilic interactions between nectin family members help mediate tissue patterning. We determined the homophilic binding affinities and heterophilic specificities of all four nectins and the related protein nectin-like 5 (Necl-5) from human and mouse, revealing a range of homophilic interaction strengths and a defined heterophilic specificity pattern. To understand the molecular basis of their adhesion and specificity, we determined the crystal structures of natively glycosylated full ectodomains or adhesive fragments of all four nectins and Necl-5. All of the crystal structures revealed dimeric nectins bound through a stereotyped interface that was previously proposed to represent a cis dimer. However, conservation of this interface and the results of targeted cross-linking experiments showed that this dimer probably represents the adhesive trans interaction. The structure of the dimer provides a simple molecular explanation for the adhesive binding specificity of nectins. | ||
