Abstract
The L1 family of CAMs (cell adhesion molecules) has long aroused the interest of researchers, but primarily the extracellular interactions of these proteins have been elucidated. More recently, attention has turned to the intracellular signalling potentiated by transmembrane proteins and the cytoplasmic proteins with which they can interact. The present review brings up to date the current body of published knowledge for the intracellular interactions of L1-CAM family proteins and the potential importance of these interactions for the mechanisms of L1-CAM action.
