| Primary Identifier | MGI:1933825 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 83964 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables identical protein binding activity and integrin binding activity. Involved in angiogenesis; cell-cell adhesion; and hematopoietic stem cell migration to bone marrow. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including leukocyte migration involved in inflammatory response; myeloid progenitor cell differentiation; and regulation of actin cytoskeleton organization by cell-cell adhesion. Located in Schmidt-Lanterman incisure; bicellular tight junction; and paranodal junction. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and immune system. Orthologous to human JAM3 (junctional adhesion molecule 3). PHENOTYPE: Approximately 60% of mice homozygous for a targeted mutation exhibit postnatal lethality. Males are infertile and display small testes and arrested differentiation of round spermatids into spermatozoa, as shown by the absence of acrosomes, elongated nuclei, and morphological signs of polarization.
