Human NCAM-1/CD56 Protein

Recombinant Human NCAM-1/CD56 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-terminus.It contains Leu20-Gly718. Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 (NCAM-1), a multifunctional member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, is expressed on the surface of neurons, glia, skeletal muscle, and natural killer cells. NCAM-1 has been implicated as having a role in cell-cell adhesion, involved in development of the nervous system, and for cells involved in the expansion of T cells and dendritic cells which play an important role in immune surveillance. Protein function: This protein is a cell adhesion molecule involved in neuron- neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation, outgrowth of neurites, etc. [The UniProt Consortium]
