Descriptions

Plexins are a large family of cell surface receptors for the axon guidance molecules semaphorins. Semaphorin-plexin signaling is essential for the regulation of neuronal development and other processes. Dysfunction in plexin pathways has been implicated in various diseases including neurological disorders and cancer.
Plexins are transmembrane proteins with a multidomain extracellular region that contains an N-terminal Sema domain. Before semaphorin binding, Plexin is an inactive monomer or dimer in which the RapGAP activity is autoinhibited. Binding of semaphorin to the Sema domain of plexin leads to activation of its cytoplasmic region, which relays the signal to downstream pathways. Mouse Plexin-A3 (P70208) possesses a segment preceding C1 domain and RDB domain as autoinhibitory elements.
