Function
May play a role in cell differentiation in the intestinal epithelium.
Tissue Specificity
Enriched in colonic mucosa. The expression of A4 follows a gradient along the crypto-villus axis with the most abundant message occurring in the lower half of the crypt.
Cellular localization
- Membrane
- Multi-pass membrane protein
