Mouse ALCAM/CD166 APC-conjugated Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity

Mouse

Specificity

Detects mouse ALCAM in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, approximately 40% cross-reactivity with recombinant human (rh) ALCAM is observed, and less than 10% cross-reactivity with rhBCAM, recombinant mouse (rm) OCAM, and rmMAdCAM‑1 is observed.

Detection of ALCAM/CD166 in Mouse Splenocytes by Flow Cytometry. Mouse Splenocytes either (A) activated or (B) resting were stained with Goat Anti-Mouse ALCAM/CD166 APC-conjugated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB1172A) and Rat Anti-Mouse B220/CD45R PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB1217P). Quadrant markers were set based on control antibody staining (Catalog # IC108A). View our protocol for Staining Membrane-associated Proteins.

Background: ALCAM/CD166

ALCAM, activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule, is a type I membrane glycoprotein and a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family. It is also known as CD166, MEMD, SC-1/DM-GRASP/BEN in the chicken, and KG-CAM in the rat. ALCAM is expressed on thymic epithelial cells, activated B and T cells, and monocytes. ALCAM can bind itself homotypically and is also capable of binding CD6, NgCAM, and other, as of yet, unidentified brain proteins. ALCAM/CD6 interaction may be involved in T cell development and T cell regulation. Additionally, ALCAM/CD6 and ALCAM/NgCAM interactions may play roles in the nervous system. ALCAM has also been observed to be upregulated on highly metastasizing melanoma cell lines and may play a role in tumor migration. ALCAM is a 583 amino acid (aa) protein consisting of a 27 aa signal peptide, a 500 aa extracellular domain, a 24 aa transmembrane domain, and a 32 aa cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domain of ALCAM contains 5 Ig-like domains of which the amino-terminal V1 domain is essential for ligand binding and ALCAM-mediated cell aggregation (1-4). The ECD of mouse ALCAM shares 97.5% aa sequence identity with rat ALCAM ECD.
