CNTNAP3 - contactin associated protein family member 3 Gene
Also Known as CASPR3; CNTNAP3A
Species: Homo sapiens
About CNTNAP3
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 289 orthologues and 35 paralogues. Broad expression in esophagus (RPKM 5.9), skin (RPKM 4.1) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the NCP family of cell-recognition molecules. This family represents a distinct subgroup of the neurexins. NCP proteins mediate neuron-glial interactions in vertebrates and glial-glial contact in invertebrates. The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in cell recognition within the nervous system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but their biological nature has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
