Functional narrative |
Seems to be involved in epithelial-mesenchymal signaling during morphogenesis of ectodermal organs. Isoform 1 binds only to the receptor EDAR, while isoform 3 binds exclusively to the receptor XEDAR. Two cleavage products exist: cleavage product 1 is Ectodysplasin-A, membrane form (aa 1-391) and cleavage product 2 is Ectodysplasin-A, secreted form (aa 160-391). At least eight isoforms are also known to exist.

| Comments:Hymovitz et al (2003) notes, "this turn was well ordered in some cases, but poorly ordered in other copies."
In Isoform 1, receptor specificity is for EDAR. At the C-terminal end of {beta}strand C, aa E308 and V309 form the receptor specificity switch, followed by a {beta}bulge formed by Y310 and Y311. An extended loop at aa 312-317 leads to {beta}strand D. Within this extended loop, residue N313 is a glycosylation site. In Isoform 3, aa E308-V309 are missing, changing the nature of the receptor specificity switch and consequently the receptor specificity--to XEDAR. (Hymovitz et al., 2003)

Comments |
Hymowitz et al (2003) performed their crystallography on the TNF domain fragment of EDA-A1 comprised of aa 233-391, and on the similar fragment for EDA-A2 of aa 233-289. the authors use Isoform 1 aa numbering for both isoforms. The DP records number each sequence individually.
UniProt lists the missing aa for Isoform 3 as V307 and E308. Hymowitz et al (2003) discuss missing aa E308 and V309. In either case, the resulting stretch from 307 to 310 reads, VYYI.
