Thy1
Function
May play a role in cell-cell or cell-ligand interactions during synaptogenesis and other events in the brain.
Post-translational modifications
Glycosylation is tissue specific. Sialylation of N-glycans at Asn-93 in brain and at Asn-42, Asn-93 and Asn-117 in thymus.
Tissue Specificity
Abundant in lymphoid tissues.
Cellular localization
- Cell membrane
- Lipid-anchor
- GPI-anchor
