Biological function summary

This receptor-like phosphatase supports important cell signaling functions. LAR is involved in neural development processes and is part of the synaptic adhesion complex. By interacting with proteins in the plasma membrane it helps modify and maintain neural connectivity necessary for proper nerve function. Its activity influences actin cytoskeleton dynamics and cell-cell adhesion.

Pathways

LAR plays a role in the axon guidance and insulin signaling pathways. In axon guidance it interacts with proteins such as netrin and nneural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) to facilitate correct neural wiring. In the insulin signaling pathway LAR can dephosphorylate key proteins like insulin receptor affecting glucose metabolism and overall energy homeostasis.
