Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a cell-surface glycoprotein involved in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration. It is a receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) and can also interact with other ligands, such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). This protein participates in a wide variety of cellular functions including lymphocyte activation, recirculation and homing, hematopoiesis, and tumor metastasis. Transcripts for this gene undergo complex alternative splicing that results in many functionally distinct isoforms, however, the full length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing is the basis for the structural and functional diversity of this protein, and may be related to tumor metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Study shows that fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs) enhance HIV-1 spread via trans-infection in which FRCs capture HIV-1 and facilitate infection of T-cells that come into contact with FRCs. CD44 was identified as the host factor that accounts for the observed producer cell dependence of trans-infection.
Title: Secondary lymphoid organ fibroblastic reticular cells mediate trans-infection of HIV-1 via CD44-hyaluronan interactions.
we analysed the differential expression of CD44v at the mRNA level in patients with AGC and compared this with the expression of standard CD44s. Based on differences in the CD44v profile, we demonstrated that the CD44v8-10 isoform is a potential therapeutic target using NIR fluorophore or photosensitiser-conjugated anti-CD44v9 antibody.

DACH1 and CD44 inversely related in breast cancer, different grade tumors and different subtypes. DACH1 was negatively associated with CD44 in vitro and vivo. DACH1 served as a good prognostic marker, and CD44 was an unfavorable element of breast cancer patients.

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build.

See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001189486.1

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (8), also known as Hermes, lacks multiple in-frame coding-exons and differs in the 3' UTR and coding sequence compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (8) lacks an internal segment and has a shorter and distinct C-terminus, as compared to isoform 1.
