Biological function summary
CD63 participates in various cellular processes including membrane trafficking cell adhesion and signal transduction. It associates with integrins and other tetraspanins forming complexes that influence cellular adhesion and migration. Through its role in exosome formation CD63 contributes significantly to intercellular communication by facilitating the transfer of proteins lipids and RNA between cells.
Pathways
CD63 plays a role in pathways linked to cell proliferation and migration and immune response regulation. Within the integrin-mediated signaling pathway CD63 interacts with proteins such as integrins to promote cell adhesion and migration. CD63 also links to vesicle trafficking pathways collaborating with proteins involved in exocytosis and endocytosis which affect cell membrane restructuring and intracellular transport.
