    text
  • single-pass type I membrane protein
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the development of neural and epithelial tissues
  • PLXNA3 and plexin-A4 are essential for normal sympathetic development
  • PLXNA3, PLXNA4 convey semaphorin signals during facial nerve development
  • is expressed in oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPCs) and immature oligodendrocytes and is involved in OPC migration
  • intersection of spontaneous electrical activity with the PLXNA3 guidance molecule receptor in regulation of axon pathfinding
  • PLXNA3 signaling is modulated by spontaneous Ca2+ spike activity-dependent competition
