Kirrel1 - kirre like nephrin family adhesion molecule 1

Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity and myosin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including excretion; negative regulation of protein phosphorylation; and positive regulation of actin filament polymerization. Located in cell-cell junction; dendritic shaft; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in craniocervical region bone; glomerular tuft; lung; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 23. Orthologous to human KIRREL1 (kirre like nephrin family adhesion molecule 1).
