CADM1

Cell adhesion molecule 1

Cell adhesion molecule 1

Protein involved in attachment of cells


Cell adhesion molecule 1 is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the CADM1 gene.[5][6]

Interactions

Cell adhesion molecule 1 has been shown to interact with EPB41L3.[7]

Association studies

Genome-wide association studies identified an association between body mass index and two loci near the CADM1 and CADM2 gene.[8] Experimental results of another study showed that obese mice had an over expression of both CADM1 and CADM2 genes, and that loss of CADM1 protected mice from obesity, promoting a negative energy balance and weight loss.[9] Furthermore, a 2019 GWAS study revealed an association between Anorexia nervosa and CADM1.[10] In the brain, this genes mediate synaptic assembly, and mutations in CADM1 are also associated with Autistic spectrum disorder.
