SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION

plasma membrane

basic FUNCTION	involved in short-range contact-mediated axonal guidance
	can both positively and negatively regulate cell adhesion and migration
	transduces signals to the nucleus and alters relevant gene expression, resulting in the decrease of invasiness of breast carcinoma cells
