“…This protein has a number of differentially spliced forms, including two transmembrane forms (sd and ld) and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked form (ssd) (10,11). After translation, N-CAM molecules can be modified in a number of ways, including N-linked polysialylation (12), phosphorylation on multiple intracellular serine and threonine residues (13), and palmitoylation of cytosolic cysteines (14,15).…”
