Summary: Predicted to enable ephrin receptor activity. Involved in angiogenesis; ephrin receptor signaling pathway; and heart morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of T cell costimulation; positive regulation of aorta morphogenesis; and venous blood vessel morphogenesis. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study cystic kidney disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in central conducting lymphatic anomaly. Orthologous to human EPHB4 (EPH receptor B4).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

Status: VALIDATED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate in-frame splice site in the 5' coding region compared to variant 1. This results in a shorter protein (isoform b) compared to isoform a.
