BACKGROUND

NCAM1 (Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule 1, also known as CD56) is a neural adhesion protein (NCAM) that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily.The encoded protein is involved in cell-to-cell interactions as well as cell-matrix interactions during development and differentiation. NCAM1 is involved in neuron-neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation, the outgrowth of neurites, etc. It has also been shown to be involved in the expansion of T cells and dendritic cells which play an important role in immune surveillance.NCAM1 signaling is mediated either by homophilic or heterophilic interactions with fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR), L1-CAM, N-cadherin and other components of the extracellular matrix.Upon activation, NCAM1 triggers a variety of signaling cascades including FYN–focal adhesion kinase (FAK), MAPK, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways.

Data

SDS-PAGE

Bioactivity

Active Recombinant Mouse NCAM1 Protein was determined by SDS-PAGE with Coomassie Blue, showing a band at 80-140 kDa.

Immobilized Mouse NCAM1, His Tag at 10 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Anti-NCAM1 with a linear range of 3.5-56.2 ng/mL.
