CD239 also known as basal cell adhesion molecule (BCAM) is an integral protein with a mass of about 60 kDa. This protein is primarily expressed in endothelial cells red blood cells and various epithelial tissues. BCAM plays a significant role in cell adhesion acting as a receptor for the extracellular matrix component laminin specifically laminin-511/521. It helps cells attach an essential role for maintaining tissue integrity and cellular communication.
Biological function summary

BCAM influences processes related to cell adhesion and motility. Although not explicitly part of a large complex it interacts closely with the cytoskeleton and mediators of signal transduction. Functions of BCAM involve linking extracellular matrix signals to the intracellular environment impacting cell movement and stabilization within tissues. It also modulates cellular responses to external mechanical stresses playing essential roles in maintaining normal cell function.

Pathways

BCAM is involved in several critical signaling processes including integrin-mediated adhesion and the MAPK/ERK pathway. How BCAM affects these pathways is through its interaction with integrins and elements related to cellular migration and proliferation. Within these pathways related proteins like laminins and other integrin subunits contribute to its adhesion properties and signaling functions enabling coordinated cellular responses to environmental cues.

BCAM is notably associated with sickle cell disease and certain cancers. In sickle cell disease the altered expression or function of BCAM on red blood cells causes abnormal adhesion to the endothelium leading to vaso-occlusion. This adhesion is often exacerbated by interactions with other proteins like L-selectin. In cancer BCAM overexpression correlates with increased tumor cell migration and invasion influencing metastasis and patient prognosis. These associations highlight BCAM's critical role in disease pathology and potential as a therapeutic target.

General info

Function

Transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as both a receptor and an adhesion molecule playing a crucial role in cell adhesion, motility, migration and invasion (PubMed : 9616226, PubMed : 31413112). Extracellular domain enables binding to extracellular matrix proteins, such as laminin, integrin and other ligands while its intracellular domain interacts with cytoskeletal proteins like hemoglobin, facilitating cell signal transduction (PubMed : 17158232). Serves as a receptor for laminin alpha-5/LAMA5 to promote cell adhesion (PubMed : 15975931). Mechanistically, JAK2 induces BCAM phosphorylation and activates its adhesion to laminin by stimulating a Rap1/AKT signaling pathway in the absence of EPOR (PubMed : 23160466).

Post-translational modifications

Epinephrine-stimulated phosphorylation of Ser-621 by PKA enhances adhesion to laminin. Ser-621 can also be phosphorylated by AKT1 (PubMed:23160466, PubMed:31413112).
