Epha5 - EPH receptor A5 Gene

Also Known as Els1; EHK-1; Els1.

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 79208

Summary

Enables Ephrin Receptor activity and growth factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cAMP-mediated signaling; dendritic spine morphogenesis; and Ephrin Receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of cell adhesion. Located in axon and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human EphA5 (EPH receptor A5).
