Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1, also known as CD56) is a cell adhesion glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily.
It is a multifunction protein involved in synaptic plasticity, neurodevelopment, and neurogenesis.
NCAM1 is expressed on human neurones, glial cells, skeletal muscle cells, NK cells and a subset of T cells, and the expression is observed in a wide variety human tumors, including myeloma, myeloid leukemia, neuroendocrine tumors, Wilms' tumor, neuroblastoma, and NK/T cell lymphomas.
Three major isoforms of NCAM1, with molecular masses of 120, 140, and 180 kD, are generated by alternative splicing of mRNA (PMID: 9696812).
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored NCAM120 and the transmembrane NCAM140 and NCAM180 consist of five Ig-like domains and two fibronection-type III repeats (FNIII).
All three forms can be posttranslationally modified by addition of polysialic acid (PSA) (PMID: 14976519).
Several other isofroms have also been described.
