Name | ICAM2 |
---|---|
Function | ICAM proteins are ligands for the leukocyte adhesion protein LFA-1 (integrin alpha-L/beta-2). ICAM2 may play a role in lymphocyte recirculation by blocking LFA-1-dependent cell adhesion. It mediates adhesive interactions important for antigen-specific immune response, NK-cell mediated clearance, lymphocyte recirculation, and other cellular interactions important for immune response and surveillance. |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell projection, microvillus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35330}. Note=Co-localizes with RDX, EZR and MSN in microvilli. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35330} |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of theintercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family. All ICAM proteinsare type I transmembrane glycoproteins, contain 2-9immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains, and bind to the leukocyteadhesion LFA-1 protein. This protein may play a role in lymphocyterecirculation by blocking LFA-1-dependent cell adhesion. Itmediates adhesive interactions important for antigen-specificimmune response, NK-cell mediated clearance, lymphocyterecirculation, and other cellular interactions important for immuneresponse and surveillance. Several transcript variants encoding thesame protein have been found for this gene.
