a cell recognition molecule which is involved in neuronal-glial interactions in avian neural retina (Fadool and Linser, 1993). The exact role that 5A11 plays during retinal development is not known. The terms 5A11/Basigin and 5A11/Basigin-2 refer to isoforms of the protein (see: Basigin).
In chicken, the protein is expressed in neuroblasts, but disappears from neurons after a specific stage of cytodifferentiation. Later expression becomes restricted to the capillary endothelium in the adult brain (Fan et al, 1998).
