Gene information for CNTNAP3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID79937
Official gene symbolCNTNAP3
Full namecontactin associated protein-like 3
Aliases,CASPR3,CNTNAP3A,RP11-138L21.1,RP11-290L7.1,
Gene summaryThe 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]
