UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: A1Z877 (A1Z877)
Gene Name:
Ndg
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Cell adhesion glycoprotein which is widely distributed in basement membranes (PubMed:30260959, PubMed:30567930). Involved in cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions probably by connecting the laminin and collagen IV networks (PubMed:30260959, PubMed:30567930). Required for permeability and mechanical stability of basement membranes, and ECM dependent neural plasticity (PubMed:30567930). Not involved in assembly of the embryonic basement membrane (PubMed:30567930)

Protein Subcellular Localization: Secreted. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix, basement membrane
