This book contains review articles that produce a snapshot of recent developments in the field of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM. The chapters are grouped into sections reflecting various aspects of NCAM structure and function. The themes cover the structural basis of cell adhesion mediated by NCAM and NCAM interaction partners, NCAM-mediated signaling determinants of NCAM function under physiological conditions and in disease, and the therapeutic potential of NCAM mimetics.

Section 1, “Structure and Ligands of NCAM,” introduces the reader to the struc-tural basis of NCAM-mediated cell adhesion, discussing the current knowledge of extracellular and intracellular NCAM ligands and the structural basis of NCAM inter-actions with the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor. Section 2, “NCAM and Polysialic Acid,” focuses on NCAM polysialylation, discussing the structural and functional aspects of the most important posttranslational modifications of NCAM by the addition of a long linear homopolymer of sialic acid to the fifth Ig-like NCAM module. Section 3, “NCAM-mediated Signal Transduction,” is devoted to signal

transduction mechanisms associated with NCAM-mediated adhesion, with a focus on signaling pathways involved in NCAM-mediated neurite outgrowth, the role of growth-associated proteins, signaling through lipid microdomains, and signaling crosstalk with the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. Section 4, “NCAM Metabolism,” focuses on current knowledge about NCAM biosynthesis and the gen-eration and role of soluble NCAM. Section 5, “NCAM, Synapses, Emotions, and Memory,” describes the role of NCAM in spine dynamics, synaptogenesis, and learn-ing and memory. Section 6, “NCAM in Disease,” covers the role of NCAM in neu-ropsychiatric disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Section 7, “Pharmacology of NCAM: NCAM Mimetics,” reviews current achievements in the in vivo and in vitro pharmacology of small NCAM mimetic peptides. Section 8, “orthologs and Paralogs of NCAM,” discusses current knowledge about the structure and function of the NCAM ortholog Fasciclin II and the NCAM paralog NCAM2.

The concluding section is devoted to Professor Elisabeth Bock, to whom this book is dedicated. Prof. Bock in the early 1970s identified the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM as brain specific protein D2 (published in Journal of Neurochemistry, 1974, vol. 23, pp. 879–880). She has dedicated her professional career to the characterization of this very important and intriguing molecule.

I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this book by writing review articles on various aspects of NCAM structure and function, Kristine Immediato for her kind assistance in managing the manuscripts, and Michael Arends for his professional proofreading of a number of the manuscripts. I would also like to acknowledge the European union-supported Integrated Project ProMEMorIA, which since 2005 has been a staunch supporter of NCAM-related research.
