Disease
[PVRL1_HUMAN] Zlotogora-Ogur syndrome;Cleft lip with or without cleft palate. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
[PVRL1_HUMAN] Promotes cell-cell contacts by forming homophilic or heterophilic trans-dimers. Heterophilic interactions have been detected between PVRL1/nectin-1 and PVRL3/nectin-3 and between PVRL1/nectin-1 and PVRL4/nectin-4. Functions as an entry receptor for herpes simplex virus and pseudorabies virus.[1]
