Plexin B1 is a protein of the plexin family that in humans is encoded by the PLXNB1 gene.[1][2][3]

Function

Within neural tissues, the plexin family serves as transmembrane receptors for Semaphorins.[4] Outside of neural tissues, Plexin B1 is implicated in the control of cell migration.[5]

Interactions

PLXNB1 has been shown to interact with ARHGEF12,[6] Rnd1[7] and ARHGEF11.[6][7][8][9]
