  Domain Name: Ig2_Nectin-1_like
Second immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of nectin-1 (also known as poliovirus receptor related protein 1, or as CD111) and similar proteins. Ig2_Nectin-1_like: domain similar to the second immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of nectin-1 (also known as poliovirus receptor related protein 1, or as CD111). Nectin-1 belongs to the nectin family comprised of four transmembrane glycoproteins (nectins-1 through 4). Nectins are synaptic cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) which facilitate adhesion and signaling at various intracellular junctions. Nectins form homophilic cis-dimers, followed by homophilic and heterophilic trans-dimers involved in cell-cell adhesion. Nectins also heterophilically trans-interact with other CAMs such as nectin-like molecules (necls); nectin-1 for example, has been shown to trans-interact with necl-1. Nectins also interact with various other proteins, including the actin filament (F-actin)-binding protein, afadin. Mutation in the human nectin-1 gene is associated with cleft lip/palate ectodermal dysplasia syndrome (CLPED1). Nectin-1 is a major receptor for herpes simplex virus through interaction with the viral envelope glycoprotein D.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
