Bovine Lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronic acid receptor 1,LYVE-1 ELI

Ligand-specific transporter trafficking between intracellular organelles (TGN) and the plasma membrane.

Plays a role in autocrine regulation of cell growth mediated by growth regulators containing cell surface retention sequence binding (CRS).

May act as a hyaluronan (HA) transporter, either mediating its uptake for catabolism within lymphatic endothelial cells themselves, or its transport into the lumen of afferent lymphatic vessels for subsequent re-uptake and degradation in lymph nodes.
