This entry represents a PSI domain found in Plexin A, B and related proteins. These are neuronal receptors for the axon guidance regulators Semaphorins. Semaphorin-plexin interactions play central roles in regulating processes such as neuronal axon guidance, angiogenesis and immune responses [1,2].
This family consists of a domain that has an immunoglobulin like fold. These domains are found in cell surface receptors such as Met and Ron as well as in intracellular transcription factors where it is involved in DNA binding. CAUTION: This family d ...
This family consists of a domain that has an immunoglobulin like fold. These domains are found in cell surface receptors such as Met and Ron as well as in intracellular transcription factors where it is involved in DNA binding. CAUTION: This family does not currently recognise a significant number of members.

A cysteine rich repeat found in several different extracellular receptors. The function of the repeat is unknown. Three copies of the repeat are found Plexin (Swiss:P70206) [1]. Two copies of the repeat are found in mahogany protein. A related C. elegans protein (Swiss:Q19981) contains four copies of the repeat. The Met receptor contains a single copy of the repeat. The Pfam alignment shows 6 conserved cysteine residues that may form three conserved disulphide bridges, whereas [1] shows 8 conserved cysteines. The pattern of conservation suggests that cysteines 5 and 7 (that are not absolutely conserved) form a disulphide bridge (Personal observation. A Bateman).
