Function | [Isoform 1]: Essential for normal retinal maturation and development (By similarity). Acts as a retinal cell surface receptor for NXNL1 and plays an important role in NXNL1-mediated survival of retinal cone photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). In association with glucose transporter SLC16A1/GLUT1 and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by enhancing aerobic glycolysis and accelerating the entry of glucose into photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). May act as a potent stimulator of IL6 secretion in multiple cell lines that include monocytes (PubMed:21620857). |
Cellular Location | Melanosome. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. [Isoform 2]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453}. Endosome Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} Basolateral cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} [Isoform 4]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} |
Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Retina-specific (PubMed:25957687). Expressed in retinal cone photoreceptors (at protein level) (PubMed:25957687). [Isoform 3]: Highly expressed in the bone marrow, fetal liver, lung, testis and thymus. |

Background
Emmprin, extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer, also known as Emmprin (BSG) or cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the Emmprin gene. The human BSG gene is mapped to 19p13.3. This protein is a determinant for the Ok blood group system. BSG has been shown to be an essential receptor on red blood cells for the malaria parasite. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, with a structure related to the putative primordial form of the family. As members of the immunoglobulin superfamily, it plays fundamental roles in intercellular recognition involved in various immunologic phenomena, differentiation, and development. BSG is thought also to play a role in intercellular recognition. It also regulates several distinct functions, such as spermatogenesis, expression of the monocarboxylate transporter and the responsiveness of lymphocytes. BSG is a type I integral membrane receptor that has many ligands, including the cyclophilin (CyP) proteins Cyp-A and CyP-B and certain integrins. It is expressed by many cell types, including epithelial cells, endothelial cells and leukocytes.
