Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM/CD56) is a calcium-independent binding protein. It is located on human chromosome 11q23.1. This molecule belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. NCAM1 is present in neurons and glial cells.
Immunogen
NCAM1 (AAH47244, 611 a.a. ~ 710 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM/CD56) participates in homophilic cell–cell and heterophilic cell–matrix interactions. It controls the movement of cells and condensation during skeletal development. This protein participates in synaptic plasticity, neurodevelopment and neurogenesis.
