Anti-R4RL2

function:May play a role in regulating axonal regeneration and plasticity in the adult central nervous system.,PTM:Undergoes zinc metalloproteinase-mediated ectodomain shedding in neuroblastoma cells, where BRE is released as a full-length ectodomain and an N-terminal fragment containing the leucine-rich repeat (LRR) region of the protein.,similarity:Belongs to the Nogo receptor family.,similarity:Contains 8 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats.,subcellular location:Localized to the surface of neurons, including axons.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in brain and liver. Expressed at lower levels in kidney, mammary gland, placenta, skeletal muscle, spleen and thyroid., Protein function: Cell surface receptor that plays a functionally redundant role in the inhibition of neurite outgrowth mediated by MAG. Plays a functionally redundant role in postnatal brain development. Contributes to normal axon migration across the brain midline and normal formation of the corpus callosum. Does not seem to play a significant role in regulating axon regeneration in the adult central nervous system. Protects motoneurons against apoptosis, protection against apoptosis is probably mediated by MAG. Like other family members, plays a role in restricting the number dendritic spines and the number of synapses that are formed during brain development (PubMed:22325200). Signaling mediates activation of Rho and downstream reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:22325200). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000 ELISA 1:5000-20000. Cellular localization: Cell membrane , Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor . Membrane raft . Cell projection, dendrite . Perikaryon . Cell projection, axon . Localized to the surface of neurons, including axons. Detected close to synapses, but is excluded from synapses. .
