ALCAM

This gene encodes activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM), also known as CD166 (cluster of differentiation 166), which is a member of a subfamily of immunoglobulin receptors with five immunoglobulin-like domains (VVC2C2C2) in the extracellular domain. This protein binds to T-cell differentiation antigene CD6, and is implicated in the processes of cell adhesion and migration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found.
Protein class

Cancer-related genes, CD markers, Plasma proteins, Transporters

Predicted location

Membrane, Secreted (different isoforms)

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Oligodendrocytes, Alveolar cells type 1, Oligodendrocyte precursor cells, Respiratory ciliated cells)

Immune cell specificity

Immune cell enhanced (myeloid DC)

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (hTERT-HME1, U-138 MG)

Interaction

Homodimer (PubMed:7760007, PubMed:16352806, PubMed:15048703, PubMed:26146185). Interacts (via extracellular domain) with CD6 (via extracellular domain) (PubMed:7760007, PubMed:8823162, PubMed:15048703, PubMed:16914752, PubMed:24945728, PubMed:26146185). Homodimerization and interaction with CD6 involve the same region and cannot occur simultaneously. The affinity for CD6 is much higher than the affinity for self-association (PubMed:15048703). Interacts (via glycosylated extracellular domain) with LGALS1 and LGALS3 (PubMed:24945728). Interaction with LGALS1 or LGALS3 inhibits interaction with CD6 (PubMed:24945728).
