Description
IGDCC3 (Immunoglobulin Superfamily DCC Subclass Member 3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 3q13.31. It encodes a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, structurally related to the deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC) family. The protein is involved in cell adhesion and may play a role in neural development and cancer. Expression is observed in various tissues, with notable levels in the brain and certain cancer cell lines.

Protein Summary
The IGDCC3 protein is a single-pass type I membrane protein containing immunoglobulin-like domains. It is predicted to function in cell-cell adhesion and may interact with netrin receptors. The protein is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in the brain. Its role in cancer is under investigation, with some evidence suggesting tumor suppressor activity.
