This gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell adhesion molecules (Ig-CAMs), and is involved in human central and peripheral nervous system development. This gene is a candidate for Down syndrome and congenital heart disease (DSCHD). A gene encoding a similar Ig-CAM protein is located on chromosome 11. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]
DSCAM (DS Cell Adhesion Molecule) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with DSCAM include Down Syndrome and Enterokinase Deficiency. Among its related pathways are Guidance Cues and Growth Cone Motility and FOXA1 transcription factor network. An important paralog of this gene is DSCAML1.
