Contactin 1 Antibody / GP135

Contactin 1, also known as CNTN1 and Glycoprotein gp135, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CNTN1 gene. 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.
