Disease

NECT4_HUMAN Ectodermal dysplasia-syndactyly syndrome. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

NECT4_HUMAN Seems to be involved in cell adhesion through trans-homophilic and -heterophilic interactions, the latter including specifically interactions with NECTIN1. Does not act as receptor for alpha-herpesvirus entry into cells. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for measles virus.^[1] ^[2]
