Anti-SynCAM/CADM1 Antibody Picoband® 31.0647 Vervoeging

Cell adhesion molecule 1 is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the CADM1 gene. This gene is also known as IGSF4, SYNCAM or TSLC1, and it is mapped to 11q23.3. CADM1 functions as a homophilic cell adhesion molecule at the synapse. Expression of the isolated cytoplasmic tail of CADM1 in neurons inhibited synapse assembly. Conversely, expression of full-length CADM1 in nonneuronal cells induced synapse formation by cocultured hippocampal neurons with normal release properties. CADM1 has been shown to interact with EPB41L3.

Mediates homophilic cell-cell adhesion in a Ca (2+) - independent manner. Also mediates heterophilic cell-cell adhesion with CADM3 and PVRL3 in a Ca (2+) -independent manner. Acts as a tumor suppressor in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Interaction with CRTAM promotes natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) secretion by CD8+ cells in vitro as well as NK cell-mediated rejection of tumors expressing CADM3 in vivo. May contribute to the less invasive phenotypes of lepidic growth tumor cells. In mast cells, may mediate attachment to and promote communication with nerves. CADM1, together with MITF, is essential for development and survival of mast cells in vivo. Acts as a synaptic cell adhesion molecule and plays a role in the formation of dendritic spines and in synapse assembly (By similarity) . May be involved in neuronal migration, axon growth, pathfinding, and fasciculation on the axons of differentiating neurons. May play diverse roles in the spermatogenesis including in the adhesion of spermatocytes and spermatids to Sertoli cells and for their normal differentiation into mature spermatozoa. .
