About PLXNB3

Cytogenetic location: Xq28 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:153,764,249-153,779,341 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 172 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 10.9), salivary gland (RPKM 4.4) and 16 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the plexin family. It functions as a receptor for semaphorin 5A, and plays a role in axon guidance, invasive growth and cell migration. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
