neural cell adhesion molecule 2
Symbol
NCAM2
(may also be known as: None)
Organism
Human
Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is a type I membrane protein and may function in selective fasciculation and zone-to-zone projection of the primary olfactory axons. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
