Biological function summary
Nectin-4 functions as an important adhesion molecule that contributes to the maintenance and organization of cell junctions. It is often part of larger adhesive complexes that include afadin which links nectin proteins to the actin cytoskeleton stabilizing cell structure. Besides its role in maintaining cell-cell adhesion nectin-4 is significant in processes like cellular polarization and migration. These properties make it an important target for understanding tissue development and integrity as well as cancer metastasis.
Pathways
Nectin-4 belongs to the pathways regulating cell adhesion and the cytoskeletal organization. It is closely associated with the cadherin and integrin signaling pathways where it collaborates with other nectin family members and afadin to regulate these networks. These interactions impact cellular processes such as signal transduction and intercellular communication critical for tissue maintenance. Studies involving 'nectin expression' help further elucidate these pathway connections and their implications in healthy and diseased tissues.

General info
Function
Seems to be involved in cell adhesion through trans-homophilic and -heterophilic interactions, the latter including specifically interactions with NECTIN1. Does not act as receptor for alpha-herpesvirus entry into cells.. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for measles virus.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the nectin family.
Post-translational modifications
The soluble form is produced by proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface (shedding), probably by ADAM17/TACE.
