Meprin, A5 protein, and protein tyrosine phosphatase Mu (MAM) domain. MAM is an extracellular domain which mediates protein-protein interactions and is found in a diverse set of proteins, many of which are known to function in cell adhesion. Members include: type IIB receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (such as RPTPmu), meprins (plasma membrane metalloproteases), neuropilins (receptors of secreted semaphorins), and zonadhesins (sperm-specific membrane proteins which bind to the extracellular matrix of the egg). In meprin A and neuropilin-1 and -2, MAM is involved in homo-oligomerization. In RPTPmu, it has been associated with both homophilic adhesive (trans) interactions and lateral (cis) receptor oligomerization. In a GPI-anchored protein that is expressed in cells in the embryonic chicken spinal chord, MDGA1, the MAM domain has been linked to heterophilic interactions with axon-rich region.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:
