Background
| Function | FUNCTION: [Isoform 1]: Essential for normal retinal maturation and development (By similarity). Acts as a retinal cell surface receptor for NXNL1 and plays an important role in NXNL1-mediated survival of retinal cone photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). In association with glucose transporter SLC16A1/GLUT1 and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by enhancing aerobic glycolysis and accelerating the entry of glucose into photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). May act as a potent stimulator of IL6 secretion in multiple cell lines that include monocytes (PubMed:21620857). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P18572, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21620857, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25957687}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: Signaling receptor for cyclophilins, essential for PPIA/CYPA and PPIB/CYPB-dependent signaling related to chemotaxis and adhesion of immune cells (PubMed:11943775, PubMed:11688976). Plays an important role in targeting monocarboxylate transporters SLC16A1/GLUT1, SLC16A11 and SLC16A12 to the plasma membrane (PubMed:17127621, PubMed:21778275, PubMed:28666119). Acts as a coreceptor for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (KDR/VEGFR2) in endothelial cells enhancing its VEGFA-mediated activation and downstream signaling (PubMed:25825981). Promotes angiogenesis through EPAS1/HIF2A-mediated up-regulation of VEGFA (isoform VEGF-165 and VEGF-121) and KDR/VEGFR2 in endothelial cells (PubMed:19837976). Plays a key role in regulating tumor growth, invasion, metastasis and neoangiogenesis by stimulating the production and release of extracellular matrix metalloproteinases and KDR/VEGFR2 by both tumor cells and stromal cells (fibroblasts and endothelial cells) (PubMed:12553375, PubMed:11992541, PubMed:15833850). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11688976, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11943775, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11992541, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12553375, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15833850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17127621, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19837976, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21778275, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25825981, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28666119}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 1]: (Microbial infection) Erythrocyte receptor for P.falciparum RH5 which is essential for erythrocyte invasion by the merozoite stage of P.falciparum isolates 3D7 and Dd2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22080952}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) Erythrocyte receptor for P.falciparum RH5 which is essential for erythrocyte invasion by the merozoite stage of P.falciparum isolates 3D7, Dd2, 7G8 and HB3 (PubMed:22080952, PubMed:26195724). Binding of P.falciparum RH5 results in BSG dimerization which triggers an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) in the erythrocyte (PubMed:28409866). This essential step leads to a rearrangement of the erythrocyte cytoskeleton required for the merozoite invasion (PubMed:28409866). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22080952, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26195724, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28409866}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) Can facilitate human SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV-1) infection via its interaction with virus-associated PPIA/CYPA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15688292}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) Can facilitate HIV-1 infection via its interaction with virus-associated PPIA/CYPA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11353871}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) First described as a receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), it is not required for SARS-CoV-2 infection. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:33432067, ECO:0000303|PubMed:32307653}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for measles virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20147391}.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: (Microbial infection) Promotes entry of pentamer-expressing human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) into epithelial and endothelial cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29739904}. |
