NECL1 (Nectin-like protein 1), also known as IgSF4B and CADM3 (cell adhesion molecule 3), is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Nectin family of the Ig (immunoglobulin) superfamily.  Most Nectin family members function as cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) located on the cell surface and involved with the binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Like other Nectin members, NECL1 contains 1 Ig-like V-type domain and 2 Ig-like C2-type domains in the extracellular region that interacts either with other CAMs of the same kind (homophilic binding) or with other CAMs or the extracellular matrix (heterophilic binding) in a Ca2+-independent manner. NECL1 is a neural tissue-specific Ig-like CAM with Ca2+-independent homo- or heterophilic cell-cell adhesion activity. NECL1 may play an important role in the formation of synapses, axon bundles and myelinated axons. It may also act as a tumor suppressor in glioma and loss of it in glioma may be caused by histone deacetylation.  NECL1 suppresses the growth and tumorigenic ability of colon cancer cells.

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CGGGAAGCAATAGCATGATA-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
