Description / NCAM-1 (CD56)
Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM-1) is a multifunctional member of the Ig superfamily. It belongs to a family of membrane-bound glycoproteins that are involved in Ca++ independent cell matrix and homophilic or heterophilic cell-cell interactions. NCAM-1 specifically binds to heparan sulfate proteoglycans, the extracellular matrix protein agrin, and several chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans that include neurocan and phosphocan. There are three main forms of human NCAM-1 that arise by alternate splicing. These are designated NCAM-120/NCAM-1, NCAM‑140, and NCAM-180. NCAM-120 is GPI-linked, while NCAM‑140 and NCAM-180 are type I transmembrane glycoproteins.
