Alexa Fluor® 555 Anti-CD166 antibody [EPR2759(2)]

Target data

Cell adhesion molecule that mediates both heterotypic cell-cell contacts via its interaction with CD6, as well as homotypic cell-cell contacts (PubMed : 15048703, PubMed : 15496415, PubMed : 16352806, PubMed : 23169771, PubMed : 24945728, PubMed : 7760007). Promotes T-cell activation and proliferation via its interactions with CD6 (PubMed : 15048703, PubMed : 16352806, PubMed : 24945728). Contributes to the formation and maturation of the immunological synapse via its interactions with CD6 (PubMed : 15294938, PubMed : 16352806). Mediates homotypic interactions with cells that express ALCAM (PubMed : 15496415, PubMed : 16352806). Acts as a ligand for the LILRB4 receptor, enhancing LILRB4-mediated inhibition of T cell proliferation (PubMed : 29263213). Required for normal hematopoietic stem cell engraftment in the bone marrow (PubMed : 24740813). Mediates attachment of dendritic cells onto endothelial cells via homotypic interaction (PubMed : 23169771). Inhibits endothelial cell migration and promotes endothelial tube formation via homotypic interactions (PubMed : 15496415, PubMed : 23169771). Required for normal organization of the lymph vessel network. Required for normal hematopoietic stem cell engraftment in the bone marrow. Plays a role in hematopoiesis; required for normal numbers of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow. Promotes in vitro osteoblast proliferation and differentiation (By similarity). Promotes neurite extension, axon growth and axon guidance; axons grow preferentially on surfaces that contain ALCAM. Mediates outgrowth and pathfinding for retinal ganglion cell axons (By similarity).. Isoform 3. Inhibits activities of membrane-bound isoforms by competing for the same interaction partners. Inhibits cell attachment via homotypic interactions. Promotes endothelial cell migration. Inhibits endothelial cell tube formation.
