Biological function

Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1/CD56) mediates cell-cell adhesion and contributes to neural development and plasticity. It is involved in neuron-neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation and neurite outgrowth, with multiple isoforms supporting context-dependent cell interactions.

Research context

NCAM1/CD56 is studied in neural-cell adhesion, neurite development, nervous-system biology and cell-interaction research. Review the linked ABMIUM research products and confirm species, sample type, assay format, application and product-level validation before use.
