- Description
- EFNA5 is a cell surface-bound member of the ephrin gene family. Ephrins are proteins that function as ligands for the ephrin receptors (Eph receptors). Eph receptors are a family of receptor tyrosine kinases which are crucial for migration, repulsion and adhesion during neuronal, vascular and epithelial development. Based on their structures and sequence relationships, ephrins are divided into the ephrin-A (EFNA) class, which are anchored to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkage, and the ephrin-B (EFNB) class, which are transmembrane proteins.
