Function
[GORS2_MOUSE] Plays a role in assembly and membrane stacking of the Golgi cisternae, and in the process by which Golgi stacks reform after mitotic breakdown. May regulate the intracellular transport and presentation of a defined set of transmembrane proteins, such as transmembrane TGFA.[1] [JAM3_MOUSE] Participates in cell-cell adhesion. It is a counter-receptor for ITGAM mediating leukocyte-platelet interactions and is involved in the regulation of transepithelial migration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) (By similarity). The soluble form is a mediator of angiogenesis.[2] [3] [4]
