Description

polymeric immunoglobulin receptor

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable epidermal growth factor receptor binding activity; polymeric immunoglobulin binding activity; and polymeric immunoglobulin receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste; and immunoglobulin transcytosis in epithelial cells mediated by polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. Predicted to be located in extracellular space and recycling endosome membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex and secretory IgA immunoglobulin complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in large intestine and small intestine. Orthologous to human PIGR (polymeric immunoglobulin receptor).
