Neural Cell Adhesion Molecules

CSP: immunoglobulin-like neuronal surface glycoprotein which binds to a variety of other cell adhesion proteins to mediate adhesion, guidance, and differentiation during neuronal growth; may contain covalent phospholipid.,MSH: Cell adhesion molecule involved in a diverse range of contact-mediated interactions among neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and myotubes. It is widely but transiently expressed in many tissues early in embryogenesis. Four main isoforms exist, including CD56; (ANTIGENS, CD56); but there are many other variants resulting from alternative splicing and post-translational modifications. (From Pigott & Power, The Adhesion Molecule FactsBook, 1993, pp115-119),FMA: Calcium-independent adhesion molecule found mostly in nerve cells.,UWDA: Calcium-independent adhesion molecule found mostly in nerve cells.,NCI: Neural cell adhesion molecule (761 aa, 84 kD) is a cell adhesion process protein that is encoded by the human NCAM1 gene and may have a role in cell adhesion.
