Description
Product Characteristics: Members of the large immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily, such as IGSF4D, have diverse roles in extracellular recognition and intercellular adhesion (Biederer, 2006 [PubMed 16311015]).[supplied by OMIM].
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of the synaptic cell adhesion molecule 1 (SynCAM) family which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. The encoded protein has three Ig-like domains and a cytosolic protein 4.1 binding site near the C-terminus. Proteins belonging to the protein 4.1 family crosslink spectrin and interact with other cytoskeletal proteins. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
