Background
This gene encodes a member of the class B seven-span transmembrane (TM7) subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. These proteins are characterized by an extended extracellular region with a variable number of N-terminal epidermal growth factor-like domains coupled to a TM7 domain via a mucin-like spacer domain. The encoded protein is expressed mainly in myeloid cells where it promotes cell-cell adhesion through interaction with chondroitin sulfate chains. This gene is situated in a cluster of related genes on chromosome 19. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Function
alternative products:A number of isoforms are produced. A number of isoforms consisting of various number of EGF-like domains seems to exist. A soluble form due to a frameshift which introduced a stop codon immediately before the first TM domain is also detected,domain:Binding to chondroitin sulfate is mediated by the fourth EGF domain.,domain:The GPS domain is necessary, but not sufficient for receptor cleavage, which require the entire extracellular stalk.,function:Receptor probably involved in cell attachment.,PTM:Proteolytically cleaved into 2 subunits, an extracellular alpha subunit and a seven-transmembrane subunit.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. LN-TM7 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 GPS domain.,similarity:Contains 5 EGF-like domains.,subunit:Forms a heterodimer, consisting of a large extracellular region non-covalently linked to a seven-transmembr
