Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 152330
Gene name Contactin 4
Gene symbol CNTN4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AXCAMBIG-2
Chromosome 3
Chromosome location 3p26.3-p26.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the contactin family of immunoglobulins. Contactins are axon-associated cell adhesion molecules that function in neuronal network formation and plasticity. The encoded protein is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored neuron
