UniProt data
UniProt name: UNC5C_HUMAN (O95185)
Gene name: UNC5C; Synonyms=UNC5H3
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Receptor for netrin required for axon guidance. Mediates axon repulsion of neuronal growth cones in the developing nervous system upon ligand binding. Axon repulsion in growth cones may be caused by its association with DCC that may trigger signaling for repulsion. Also involved in corticospinal tract axon guidances independently of DCC. It also acts as a dependence receptor required for apoptosis induction when not associated with netrin ligand. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08747}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08747}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O08747}. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q761X5}.
Transmembrane domains:
- 381-401, 21 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 931 AA
