About PLXNA3

Cytogenetic location: Xq28 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:154,458,281-154,477,779 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 7.2), ovary (RPKM 7.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the plexin class of proteins. The encoded protein is a class 3 semaphorin receptor, and may be involved in cytoskeletal remodeling and as well as Apoptosis. Studies of a similar gene in zebrafish suggest that it is important for axon pathfinding in the developing nervous system. This gene may be associated with tumor progression.
