Third immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in Robo (roundabout) receptors; member of the I-set of Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains; The members here are composed of the third immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in Robo (roundabout) receptors. Robo receptors play a role in the development of the central nervous system (CNS), and are receptors of Slit protein. Slit is a repellant secreted by the neural cells in the midline. Slit acts through Robo to prevent most neurons from crossing the midline from either side. Three mammalian Robo homologs (Robo1, Robo2, Robo3), and three mammalian Slit homologs (Slit-1,Slit-2, Slit-3), have been identified. Commissural axons, which cross the midline, express low levels of Robo; longitudinal axons, which avoid the midline, express high levels of Robo. Robo1, Robo2, and Robo3 are expressed by commissural neurons in the vertebrate spinal cord and Slit-1, Slit-2, and Slit-3 are expressed at the ventral midline. Robo-3 is a divergent member of the Robo family which instead of being a positive regulator of Slit responsiveness, antagonizes Slit responsiveness in precrossing axons. The Slit-Robo interaction is mediated by the second leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain of Slit and the two N-terminal Ig domains of Robo, Ig1 and Ig2. The primary Robo binding site for Slit2 has been shown by surface plasmon resonance experiments and mutational analysis to be the Ig1 domain, while the Ig2 domain has been proposed to harbor a weak secondary binding site. This group belongs to the I-set of IgSF domains, having A-B-E-D strands in one beta-sheet and A'-G-F-C-C' in the other. Like the V-set Ig domains, members of the I-set have a discontinuous A strand, but lack a C" strand.

These nectin-like molecules have similar domain structures to those of nectins. At least five nectin-like molecules have been identified (Necl-1 through Necl-5). These have an extracellular region containing three Ig-like domains, one transmembrane region, and one cytoplasmic region. The N-terminal Ig-like domain of the extracellular region belongs to the V-type subfamily of Ig domains, is essential to cell-cell adhesion, and plays a part in the interaction with the envelope glycoprotein D of various viruses. Necl-1 and Necl-2 have Ca(2+)-independent homophilic and heterophilic cell-cell adhesion activity. Necl-1 is specifically expressed in neural tissue and is important to the formation of synapses, axon bundles, and myelinated axons. Necl-2 is expressed in a wide variety of tissues, and is a putative tumour suppressor gene, which is downregulated in aggressive neuroblastoma. Necl-3 has been shown to accumulate in tissues of the central and peripheral nervous system, where it is expressed in ependymal cells and myelinated axons. It is observed at the interface between the axon shaft and the myelin sheath. Necl-4 is expressed on Schwann cells, and plays a key part in initiating peripheral nervous system (PNS) myelination. Necl-4 participates in cell-cell adhesion and is proposed to play a role in tumor suppression.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like I-set domain of Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 (NCAM-1) and similar proteins; The members here are composed of the fourth immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule (NCAM-1). NCAM plays important roles in the development and regeneration of the central nervous system, in synaptogenesis and neural migration. NCAM mediates cell-cell and cell-substratum recognition and adhesion via homophilic (NCAM-NCAM), and heterophilic (NCAM-non-NCAM), interactions. NCAM is expressed as three major isoforms having different intracellular extensions. The extracellular portion of NCAM has five N-terminal Ig-like domains and two fibronectin type III domains. The double zipper adhesion complex model for NCAM homophilic binding involves Ig1, Ig2, and Ig3. By this model, Ig1 and Ig2 mediate dimerization of NCAM molecules situated on the same cell surface (cis interactions), and Ig3 domains mediate interactions between NCAM molecules expressed on the surface of opposing cells (trans interactions), through binding to the Ig1 and Ig2 domains. The adhesive ability of NCAM is modulated by the addition of polysialic acid chains to the fifth Ig-like domain. Also included in this group is NCAM-2 (also known as OCAM/mamFas II and RNCAM) NCAM-2 is differentially expressed in the developing and mature olfactory epithelium (OE). One of the unique features of I-set domains is the lack of a C" strand. The structures of this group show that the Ig domain lacks this strand and thus is a member of the I-set of Ig domains.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) domains 2, 4, and 6, and similar domains; The members here are composed of the second, fourth, and sixth immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains in human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) protein subfamily. The CEA family is a group of anchored or secreted glycoproteins expressed by epithelial cells, leukocytes, endothelial cells, and placenta. The CEA family is divided into the CEACAM and pregnancy-specific glycoprotein (PSG) subfamilies. This group represents the CEACAM subfamily. CEACAM1 has many important cellular functions; it is a cell adhesion molecule and a signaling molecule that regulates the growth of tumor cells, an angiogenic factor, and a receptor for bacterial and viral pathogens, including mouse hepatitis virus (MHV). In mice, four isoforms of CEACAM1 generated by alternative splicing have either two [D1, D4] or four [D1-D4] Ig-like domains on the cell surface.

Fourth Ig domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule contactin-2, and similar domains; The members here are composed of the fourth Ig domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule contactin-2. Contactins are comprised of six Ig domains followed by four fibronectin type III (FnIII) domains anchored to the membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol. Contactin-2 (also called TAG-1, axonin-1) facilitates cell adhesion by homophilic binding between molecules in apposed membranes. The first four Ig domains form the intermolecular binding fragment which arranges as a compact U-shaped module by contacts between Ig domains 1 and 4, and domains 2 and 3. It has been proposed that a linear zipper-like array forms, from contactin-2 molecules alternatively provided by the two apposed membranes.

Second immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in Robo (roundabout) receptors; member of the I-set of Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains; The members here are composed of the second immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in Robo (roundabout) receptors. Robo receptors play a role in the development of the central nervous system (CNS), and are receptors of the Slit protein. Slit is a repellant secreted by the neural cells in the midline. Slit acts through Robo to prevent most neurons from crossing the midline from either side. Three mammalian Robo homologs (Robo1, Robo2, and Robo3), and three mammalian Slit homologs (Slit-1,Slit-2, Slit-3), have been identified. Commissural axons, which cross the midline, express low levels of Robo; longitudinal axons, which avoid the midline, express high levels of Robo. Robo1, Robo2, and Robo3 are expressed by commissural neurons in the vertebrate spinal cord and Slit-1, Slit-2, Slit-3 are expressed at the ventral midline. Robo-3 is a divergent member of the Robo family which instead of being a positive regulator of Slit responsiveness, antagonizes Slit responsiveness in precrossing axons. The Slit-Robo interaction is mediated by the second leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain of Slit and the two N-terminal Ig domains of Robo, Ig1 and Ig2. The primary Robo binding site for Slit-2 has been shown by surface plasmon resonance experiments and mutational analysis to be the Ig1 domain, while the Ig2 domain has been proposed to harbor a weak secondary binding site. This group belongs to the I-set of IgSF domains, having A-B-E-D strands in one beta-sheet and A'-G-F-C-C' in the other. Like the V-set Ig domains, members of the I-set have a discontinuous A strand, but lack a C" strand.

Immunoglobulin constant (IgC)-like domain of antigen receptor Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 80; member of the C1-set of Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin constant (IgC)-like domain of the antigen receptor Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 80. CD80 (also known as glycoprotein B7-1) and CD86 (also known as glycoprotein B7-2) are expressed on antigen-presenting cells and deliver the co-stimulatory signal through CD28 and CTLA-4 (CD152) on T cells. signaling through CD28 augments the T-cell response, whereas CTLA-4 signaling attenuates it. CD80 contains two Ig-like domains, an amino-terminal immunoglobulin variable (IgV)-like domain characteristic of adhesion molecules, and a membrane proximal immunoglobulin constant (IgC)-like domain similar to the constant domains of antigen receptors. Members of the Ig family are components of immunoglobulin, T-cell receptors, CD1 cell surface glycoproteins, secretory glycoproteins A/C, and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I/II molecules. In immunoglobulins, each chain is composed of one variable domain (IgV) and one or more IgC domains. These names reflect the fact that the variability in sequences is higher in the variable domain than in the constant domain. The IgV domain is responsible for antigen binding, and the IgC domain is involved in oligomerization and molecular interactions.

Second immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of Nectin-2 and Nectin-like protein 5, and similar domains; member of the C1-set of the Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains; The members here are composed of the second immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of nectin-2 (also known as poliovirus receptor related protein 2 or Cluster of Differentiation 112 (CD112)), nectin-like protein 5 (CD155), and similar proteins. Nectins and Nectin-like molecules are a family of Ca(2+)-independent immunoglobulin-like transmembrane glycoproteins belonging to the class of adhesion receptors, consisting of nine members (nectins 1 through 4 and nectin-like proteins 1 through 5). Nectins are synaptic cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) which facilitate adhesion and signaling at various intracellular junctions. Nectins form homophilic cis-dimers, followed by homophilic and heterophilic trans-dimers involved in cell-cell adhesion. Nectin-2 and nectin-3 localize at Sertoli-spermatid junctions where they form heterophilic trans-interactions between the cells that are essential for the formation and maintenance of the junctions and for spermatid development. CD155 is the fifth member in the nectin-like molecule family, and functions as the receptor of poliovirus; therefore, CD155 is also referred to as Necl-5, or PVR. In contrast to all other family members, CD155 lacks self-adhesion capacity, yet it shares with nectins the feature to interact with other nectins. For instance, CD155 heterophilically trans-interacts with nectin-3, thereby contributing significantly to the establishment of adherens junctions between epithelial cells. This group belongs to the Constant 1 (C1)-set of IgSF domains, which has one beta-sheet that is formed by strands A-B-E-D and the other strands by G-F-C-C'.

Second Ig-like domain of the giant muscle protein titin Z1z2 in the sarcomeric Z-disk, and similar domains; a member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the second immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of the giant muscle protein titin Z1z2 in the sarcomeric Z-disk and similar proteins. Titin is a key component in the assembly and functioning of vertebrate striated muscles. By providing connections at the level of individual microfilaments, it contributes to the fine balance of forces between the two halves of the sarcomere. The Ig superfamily (IgSF) is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. IgSF domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. Unlike the V-set, one of the distinctive features of I-set domains is the lack of a C" strand. The structure of the titin Z1z2 lacks this strand and thus it belongs to the I-set of the IgSF. I-set domains are found in several cell adhesion molecules (such as VCAM, ICAM, and MADCAM), and are also present in numerous other diverse protein families, including several tyrosine-protein kinase receptors, the hemolymph protein hemolin, the muscle proteins titin, telokin, and twitchin, the neuronal adhesion molecule axonin-1, and the signaling molecule semaphorin 4D that is involved in axonal guidance, immune function and angiogenesis.

Contactins are neural cell adhesion molecules and are comprised of six Ig domains followed by four fibronectin type III (FnIII) domains anchored to the membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol. The first four Ig domains form the intermolecular binding fragment, which arranges as a compact U-shaped module via contacts between Ig domains 1 and 4, and between Ig domains 2 and 3. Contactin-2 (TAG-1, axonin-1) may play a part in the neuronal processes of neurite outgrowth, axon guidance and fasciculation, and neuronal migration. This group also includes contactin-1 and contactin-5. The different contactins show different expression patterns in the central nervous system. During development and in adulthood, contactin-2 is transiently expressed in subsets of central and peripheral neurons. Contactin-5 is expressed specifically in the rat postnatal nervous system, peaking at about 3 weeks postnatal, and a lack of contactin-5 (NB-2) results in an impairment of neuronal activity in the rat auditory system. Contactin-5 is highly expressed in the adult human brain in the occipital lobe and in the amygdala. Contactin-1 is differentially expressed in tumor tissues and may, through a RhoA mechanism, facilitate invasion and metastasis of human lung adenocarcinoma. This group belongs to the I-set of IgSF domains.

Slit acts through Robo to prevent most neurons from crossing the midline from either side. Three mammalian Robo homologs (Robo1, -2, and -3), and three mammalian Slit homologs (Slit-1,-2, -3), have been identified. Commissural axons, which cross the midline, express low levels of Robo; longitudinal axons, which avoid the midline, express high levels of Robo. Robo1, -2, and -3 are expressed by commissural neurons in the vertebrate spinal cord and Slits 1, -2, -3 are expressed at the ventral midline. Robo-3 is a divergent member of the Robo family which instead of being a positive regulator of slit responsiveness, antagonizes slit responsiveness in precrossing axons. The Slit-Robo interaction is mediated by the second leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain of Slit and the two N-terminal Ig domains of Robo, Ig1 and Ig2.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like I-set domain of Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule 2 (NCAM-2); The members here are composed of the fourth Ig domain of Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule NCAM-2 (also known as OCAM/mamFas II and RNCAM). NCAM-2 is organized similarly to NCAM, including five N-terminal Ig-like domains and two fibronectin type III domains. NCAM-2 is differentially expressed in the developing and mature olfactory epithelium (OE), and may function like NCAM, as an adhesion molecule. One of the unique features of I-set domains is the lack of a C" strand. The structures of this group show that the Ig domain lacks this strand and thus is a member of the I-set of Ig domains.

CH3 domain (third constant Ig domain of the heavy chain) in immunoglobulin heavy alpha, gamma, and delta chains, and CH4 domain (fourth constant Ig domain of the heavy chain) in immunoglobulin heavy alpha, epsilon, and mu chains; member of the C1-set of I; The members here are composed of the third and fourth immunoglobulin constant domain (IgC) of alpha, delta, gamma and alpha, epsilon, and mu heavy chains, respectively. This domain is found on the Fc fragment. The basic structure of Ig molecules is a tetramer of two light chains and two heavy chains linked by disulfide bonds. There are two types of light chains: kappa and lambda; each is composed of a constant domain and a variable domain. There are five types of heavy chains: alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma, and mu, all consisting of a variable domain (VH) with three (alpha, delta and gamma) or four (epsilon and mu) constant domains (CH1 to CH4). Ig molecules are modular proteins, in which the variable and constant domains have clear, conserved sequence patterns.

Immunoglobulin I-set domain of the Leucine-rich repeat and immunoglobin-like domain-containing protein 1 (Lingo-1); The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin I-set (IgI) domain of the Leucine-rich repeat and immunoglobin-like domain-containing protein 1 (Lingo-1). Human Lingo-1 is a central nervous system-specific transmembrane glycoprotein also known as LERN-1, which functions as a negative regulator of neuronal survival, axonal regeneration, and oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination. Lingo-1 is a key component of the Nogo receptor signaling complex (RTN4R/NGFR) in RhoA activation responsible for some inhibition of axonal regeneration by myelin-associated factors. The ligand-binding ectodomain of human Lingo-1 contains a bimodular, kinked structure composed of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) and immunoglobulin (Ig)-like modules. Diseases associated with Lingo-1 include mental retardation, autosomal recessive 64 and essential tremor. The Ig superfamily (IgSF) is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. IgSF domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. Unlike the V-set, one of the distinctive features of I-set domains is the lack of a C" strand. The structure of the Lingo-1 lacks this strand and thus it belongs to the I-set of the IgSF. I-set domains are found in several cell adhesion molecules (such as VCAM, ICAM, and MADCAM), and are also present in numerous other diverse protein families, including several tyrosine-protein kinase receptors, the hemolymph protein hemolin, the muscle proteins titin, telokin, and twitchin, the neuronal adhesion molecule axonin-1, and the signaling molecule semaphorin 4D that is involved in axonal guidance, immune function and angiogenesis.

Third immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of the receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP)-F (also known as LAR), type IIa; member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the third immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain found in the receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP)-F, also known as LAR. LAR belongs to the RPTP type IIa subfamily. Members of this subfamily are cell adhesion molecule-like proteins involved in central nervous system (CNS) development. They have large extracellular portions comprised of multiple Ig-like domains and two to nine fibronectin type III (FNIII) domains and a cytoplasmic portion having two tandem phosphatase domains. Included in this group is Drosophila LAR (DLAR).
