| 736053 | Ncan | neurocan | Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity; carbohydrate binding activity; and hyaluronic acid binding activity. Involved in modulation of chemical synaptic transmission and regulation of postsynapse organization. Acts upstream of or within regulation of synapse structural plasticity. Is activ e in GABA-ergic synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and perisynaptic extracellular matrix. Is expressed in lower jaw; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human NCAN (neurocan).
