MCAM Antibody

• Gene Name :

  Melanoma cell adhesion molecule

• Gene Aliases :

  CD146; cell surface glycoprotein MUC18; gicerin; l-gicerin; Melanoma cell adhesion molecule; melanoma-associated antigen MUC18; Muc18.

• Gene ID :

  78967

• Accession Number :

  NP_001029181.1

• Reactivity :

  Mouse|Rat

• Immunogen :

  Range: Gln323 - Lys560

• Target :

  Plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Its expression may allow melanoma cells to interact with cellular elements of the vascular system, thereby enhancing hematogeneous tumor spread. Could be an adhesion molecule active in neural crest cells during embryonic development. Acts as surface receptor that triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of FYN and PTK2/FAK1, and a transient increase in the intracellular calcium concentration (By similarity) .
