{"symbol":"CDON","synonyms":["HPE11","ORCAM","CDON1","CDO"],"name":"cell adhesion associated, oncogene regulated","description":"This gene encodes a cell surface receptor that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein contains three fibronectin type III domains and five immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains. This protein is a member of a cell-surface receptor complex that mediates cell-cell interactions between muscle precursor cells and positively regulates myogenesis.
