CATEGORY

adhesion , signaling

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
text	type I transmembrane protein

basic FUNCTION	brain segment specific neuronal adhesion molecule
	adhesion of growing axons to make proper synaptic connection
	may be a critical component in neuron-microglial cell interactions in the course of normal development or as part of neurodegenerative diseases
	important for the regulation of immunological activity in the brain and for the development of neuronal synapses and signal transmission
	may be involved in immune privilege of the brain and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent
	dendritically polarized membrane glycoprotein expressed in tissues distinct from those expressing other ICAMs
	plays a critical role in modulating chemokine production in the CNS
