CNTNAP2, also known as Contactin Associated Protein-Like 2, is a cell adhesion molecule that belongs to the neurexin superfamily. It plays a crucial role in the development and function of the nervous system, particularly in neuronal migration, axon guidance, synaptic formation, and signal transduction. One of the primary functions of CNTNAP2 is its role in neuronal migration and axon guidance during brain development. It is predominantly expressed in the developing nervous system, where it interacts with other cell adhesion molecules, extracellular matrix proteins, and signaling molecules to regulate neuronal migration and axonal pathfinding. Dysregulation of CNTNAP2 expression or function has been...
