Gene data

CNTN1
Name
contactin 1
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
CMYO12, CMYP12, F3, GP135, MYPCN

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored neuronal membrane protein that functions as a cell adhesion molecule. It may play a role in the formation of axon connections in the developing nervous system. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
