Abstract

This unit provides protocols to assay cell-cell adhesion and adhesive-dependent cellular functions mediated by calcium-independent adhesion molecules. These protocols have been developed for neural cell adhesion molecules of the Ig superfamily. However, most of the protocols allow a more general application to other categories of adhesion molecules and non-neural cells.
