Function

Calcium-dependent lectin that mediates cell adhesion by binding to glycoproteins on neighboring cells. Mediates the adherence of lymphocytes to endothelial cells of high endothelial venules in peripheral lymph nodes (PubMed:1693096). Promotes initial tethering and rolling of leukocytes in endothelia (By similarity).

Post-translational modifications

N-glycosylated.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the selectin/LECAM family.

Tissue specificity

Predominantly expressed in lymphoid tissue.

Cellular localization

  • Cell membrane
  • Single-pass type I membrane protein
