    basic FUNCTION
  • putative adhesion receptor protein which could play a role in neural crest cells migration (a process which has been proposed to be altered in DiGeorge syndrome)
  • involved in cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions required for normal cell differentiation and migration
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell migration & motility
