  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Sema5b
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • semaphorin family
  • CATEGORY regulatory
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in axonal guidance during neural development (Adams 1996)
  • may be involved in regulating cell-sorting in the formation and regeneration of the periodontal attachment structure (Lallier 2004)
  • induces calpain-mediated cleavage of calcineurin (To 2007)
  • regulates the development and maintenance of synapse size and number in hippocampal neurons
  • SEMA5A, SEMA5B control selective retinal lamination and function
  • is proteolytically processed from its transmembrane form and can function as a soluble growth cone collapsing guidance cue
  • contributes potentially to a repulsive barrier for centrally projecting primary sensory axons, forcing them to turn and establish the dorsal funiculus

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • SEMA5A and SEMA5B inhibit retinal neurite outgrowth through PlexinA1 and PlexinA3 receptors
  • SEMA5B acts as a FOXP1- dependent suppressor of endothelial cell proliferation, migration and sprouting, mediating the effects of FOXP1
  • inhibits the growth of NGF-dependent sensory axons and this effect is mediated in part through the cell adhesion molecule CNTN2
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other proteolytic cleavage of SEMA5B results in the release of a potentially diffusible semaphorin domain that is a necessary component for its biological function in the regulation of synapse morphology (O'Connor 2009)
