Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - EPHA8 is a type I transmembrane receptor that is expressed in a variety of cell types. - It is a cell surface receptor that is involved in cell adhesion and migration. - It is a key regulator of cell adhesion mediated by integrin. - It is also involved in the regulation of cell adhesion mediated by ephrins. **Pathways and functions:** - EPHA8 is a key regulator of cell adhesion. It is expressed in cells that are in contact with other cells, and it is responsible for the adhesion of these cells to each other. - It is also involved in the migration of cells. - It is involved in the regulation of cell adhesion mediated by integrin. - It is also involved in the regulation of cell adhesion mediated by ephrins. - It is also involved in the development of the nervous system. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in EPHA8 have been linked to a number of human diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular disease. - EPHA8 is a potential target for the treatment of these diseases.
