Description
Product Characteristics:
The CTX family of proteins, including ASAM, are type I transmembrane proteins within the Ig superfamily that localize to junctional complexes between endothelial and epithelial cells and may play a role in cell-cell adhesion.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane
Synonyms: ACAM, Adipocyte specic adhesion molecule, CAR like membrane protein, CLMP, Coxsackie and adenovirus receptor like membrane protein, CLMP_HUMAN.
Target Information: The CTX (see VSIG2, MIM 606011) family of proteins, including ASAM, are type I transmembrane proteins within the Ig superfamily that localize to junctional complexes between endothelial and epithelial cells and may play a role in cell-cell adhesion (Raschperger et al., 2004 [PubMed 14573622]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
