ALCAM (CD166)

SYNONYMS
Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule, CD166 Antigen, MEMD, Activated Leucocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule, CD166, ALCAM.

INTRODUCTION
CD166 antigen isoform 2 (ALCAM) is a type 1 membrane glycoprotein and belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. ALCAM is expressed on thymic epithelium, microvascular endothelium, activated lymphocytes and monocytes, and monocyte-derived dendritic cells.  CD166 and CD6 interaction plays a role in T cell development and T cell regulation, as well as in the binding of T cells and B cells to activated leukocytes.

DESCRIPTION
ALCAM Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 742 amino acids (28-527a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 83.1kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 70-100 kDa).
CD166 is expressed with a 239 amino acid hIgGHis tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
