  1. With respect to the human sequence, the extracellular domain is amino acids 1-624; transmembrane domain, amino acids 625-658; proximal cytoplasmic domain, amino acids 659-618; distal cytoplasmic domain, amino acids 619-638. Homology estimates were generated by multiplex FASTA comparison; ns, not significant.
