neural cell adhesion molecule [¦nu̇r·əl ‚sel ad′hē·zhen ‚mäl·ə‚kyül]
(neuroscience)
A calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule expressed by migrating neurons that mediates intercellular binding via homophilic mechanisms (by binding to other neural cell adhesion molecules); important in neuronal aggregation.

Neuronal cell adhesion molecules "are critical in the development of the nervous system, contributing to axonal guidance, synaptic formation and plasticity, and neuronal-glial interactions," the researchers explained, while the ubiquitin-proteasome system "operates pre- and post-synaptic compartments, regulating synaptic attributes, including transmitter release, synaptic vesicle recycling in pre-synaptic terminals, and dynamic changes in dendritic spines and the post-synaptic density.
