Description

KIAA0319L encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to the KIAA0319 family. The protein is involved in cell adhesion, neuronal migration, and may play a role in cancer progression. It is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in brain and testis. Variants in KIAA0319L have been associated with susceptibility to certain cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Protein Summary

KIAA0319L is a 1015-amino acid transmembrane protein with a large extracellular domain containing multiple fibronectin type III repeats. It is predicted to function in cell-cell adhesion and neuronal migration. The protein is localized to the plasma membrane and is expressed in brain and other tissues. Structural modeling suggests it may interact with other membrane proteins to modulate signaling pathways.
