Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Ligand for tyrosine-protein kinase receptors AXL, TYRO3 and MER whose signaling is implicated in cell growth and survival, cell adhesion and cell migration. GAS6/AXL signaling plays a role in various processes such as endothelial cell survival during acidification by preventing apoptosis, optimal cytokine signaling during human natural killer cell development, hepatic regeneration, gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuron survival and migration, platelet activation, or regulation of thrombotic responses. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12364394, ECO:0000269PubMed:18840707}.
Subcellular Localization Secreted {ECO:0000269PubMed:9326369}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Plasma. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are widely expressed. Isoform 1 is the predominant form in spleen. {ECO:0000269PubMed:8336730, ECO:0000269PubMed:9326368}.
