Biological function summary
SynCAM/CADM1 acts as a cell recognition molecule participating in the formation of synaptic connections in neural circuits. It is a component of a complex that regulates synaptic clustering and neural connectivity. In the nervous system SynCAM/CADM1 facilitates the initial axon-dendrite contact allowing efficient synaptic communication. Its expression and interaction affect the building of mature and functional synapses which are essential for cognitive processes.
Pathways
SynCAM/CADM1 integrates into synaptic development and cell signaling pathways. It interacts with scaffolding proteins like PSD-95 which stabilize the synaptic structure. The protein also participates in the Ras signaling pathway influencing cell growth and survival signals. Through its engagement in these pathways SynCAM/CADM1 plays a role in neural circuit plasticity and function maintaining proper communication between neurons.

Function
Mediates homophilic cell-cell adhesion in a Ca(2+)-independent manner (PubMed : 12202822, PubMed : 12799182, PubMed : 12826663). Also mediates heterophilic cell-cell adhesion with CADM3 and NECTIN3 in a Ca(2+)-independent manner (PubMed : 12826663). Interaction with CRTAM promotes natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) secretion by CD8+ T-cells in vitro as well as NK cell-mediated rejection of tumors expressing CADM1 in vivo (PubMed : 15811952). In mast cells, may mediate attachment to and promote communication with nerves (By similarity). CADM1, together with MITF, is essential for development and survival of mast cells in vivo (PubMed : 15158462, PubMed : 16605125). By interacting with CRTAM and thus promoting the adhesion between CD8+ T-cells and CD8+ dendritic cells, regulates the retention of activated CD8+ T-cell within the draining lymph node (PubMed : 19752223). Required for the intestinal retention of intraepithelial CD4+ CD8+ T-cells and, to a lesser extent, intraepithelial and lamina propria CD8+ T-cells and CD4+ T-cells (PubMed : 24687959). Interaction with CRTAM promotes the adhesion to gut-associated CD103+ dendritic cells, which may facilitate the expression of gut-homing and adhesion molecules on T-cells and the conversion of CD4+ T-cells into CD4+ CD8+ T-cells (PubMed : 24687959). Acts as a synaptic cell adhesion molecule and plays a role in the formation of dendritic spines and in synapse assembly (PubMed : 12202822, PubMed : 23209303). May be involved in neuronal migration, axon growth, pathfinding, and fasciculation on the axons of differentiating neurons (PubMed : 15707673). May play diverse roles in the spermatogenesis including in the adhesion of spermatocytes and spermatids to Sertoli cells and for their normal differentiation into mature spermatozoa (PubMed : 12606335, PubMed : 16612000).
