PLXND1
geneOn this page
Also known as KIAA0620
Summary
PLXND1 (plexin D1, HGNC:9107) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q22.1, encoding Plexin-D1 (Q9Y4D7). Cell surface receptor for SEMA4A and for class 3 semaphorins, such as SEMA3A, SEMA3C and SEMA3E.
Enables protein domain specific binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of axonogenesis; semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway; and synapse assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within circulatory system development; dichotomous subdivision of terminal units involved in salivary gland branching; and kidney development. Located in lamellipodium.

Function. Cell surface receptor for SEMA4A and for class 3 semaphorins, such as SEMA3A, SEMA3C and SEMA3E. Plays an important role in cell-cell signaling, and in regulating the migration of a wide spectrum of cell types. Regulates the migration of thymocytes in the medulla. Regulates endothelial cell migration. Plays an important role in ensuring the specificity of synapse formation. Required for normal development of the heart and vasculature. Mediates anti-angiogenic signaling in response to SEMA3E.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with NRP1 and SEMA4A. Interacts with SH3BP1; they dissociate upon SEMA3E binding to PLXND1 allowing SH3BP1 to transduce downstream signal through RAC1 inactivation.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Cell projection. Lamellipodium membrane.
Tissue specificity. Detected at low levels in heart, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney, thymus and liver. Detected at very low levels in brain, colon, spleen, small intestine and peripheral blood leukocytes.
Disease relevance. Congenital heart defects, multiple types, 9 (CHTD9) [MIM:620294] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by congenital developmental abnormalities involving structures of the heart. CHTD9 features include common arterial trunk, tetralogy of Fallot, interrupted aortic arch, right aortic arch, ventricular hypoplasia, and hypoplastic left heart, as well as other vascular and valvular anomalies. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the plexin family.
