Neurochondrin (NCDN)

Probably involved in signal transduction, in the nervous system, via increasing cell surface localization of GRM5 and positively regulating its signaling (By similarity). Required for the spatial learning process.

Acts as a negative regulator of Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase 2 (CaMK2) phosphorylation. May play a role in modulating melanin- concentrating hormone-mediated functions via its interaction with MCHR1 that interferes with G protein-coupled signal transduction.
