UniProt data
UniProt name: CADM2_HUMAN (Q8N3J6)
Gene name: CADM2; Synonyms=IGSF4D, NECL3
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Adhesion molecule that engages in homo- and heterophilic interactions with the other nectin-like family members, leading to cell aggregation. Important for synapse organization, providing regulated trans-synaptic adhesion. Preferentially binds to oligodendrocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17967169}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17967169}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17967169}. Cell junction, synapse {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17967169}. Cell projection, axon {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17967169}. Note=Found in the axoplasm of myelinated axons.
Transmembrane domains:
- 368-388, 21 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 435 AA
