Descriptor English: Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1
Descriptor Spanish: Molécula L1 de Adhesión de Célula Nerviosa
Descriptor molécula L1 de adhesión de células nerviosas
Scope note: Miembro de la superfamilia de inmunoglobulinas de las moléculas de adhesión de las células neuronales, necesario para el desarrollo apropiado del sistema nervioso. Consta de seis dominios de Ig, cinco dominios de fibronectina, una región transmembranaria y un dominio intracelular. Se conocen dos variantes de ayuste: una forma neuronal que contiene una secuencia RSLE de cuatro aminoácidos en el dominio citoplásmico, y una forma no neuronal en la que falta la secuencia RSLE. Las mutaciones del gen L1 dan lugar a la enfermedad L1. La molécula L1 de adhesión de la célula neural se manifiesta predominantemente durante el desarrollo de las neuronas y de las células de Schwann; está implicada en la adherencia celular, migración neuronal, crecimiento y exploración axónicos y en la mielinización.

Scope note: A member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of neuronal cell adhesion molecules that is required for proper nervous system development. Neural cell adhesion molecule L1 consists of six Ig domains, five fibronectin domains, a transmembrane region and an intracellular domain. Two splicing variants are known: a neuronal form that contains a four-amino acid RSLE sequence in the cytoplasmic domain, and a non-neuronal form that lacks the RSLE sequence. Mutations in the L1 gene result in L1 disease. Neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is predominantly expressed during development in neurons and Schwann cells; involved in cell adhesion, neuronal migration, axonal growth and pathfinding, and myelination.
