ALCAM, activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule, is a type I membrane glycoprotein and a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family. It is also known as CD166, MEMD, SC-1/DM-GRASP/BEN in the chicken, and KG-CAM in the rat. ALCAM is expressed on thymic epithelial cells, activated B and T cells, and monocytes. ALCAM can bind itself homotypically and is also capable of binding CD6, NgCAM, and other, as of yet, unidentified brain proteins. ALCAM/CD6 interaction may be involved in T cell development and T cell regulation. Additionally, ALCAM/CD6 and ALCAM/NgCAM interactions may play roles in the nervous system. ALCAM has also been observed to be upregulated on highly metastasizing melanoma cell lines and may play a role in tumor migration. ALCAM is a 583 amino acid (aa) protein consisting of a 27 aa signal peptide, a 500 aa extracellular domain, a 24 aa transmembrane domain and a 32 aa cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domain of ALCAM contains 5 Ig-like domains of which the amino-terminal V1 domain is essential for ligand binding and ALCAM-mediated cell aggregation (1‑4).

Scientific Data Images for Mouse ALCAM/CD166 Antibody [Biotin]
ALCAM/CD166 in Mouse Liver.
ALCAM/CD166 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse liver using Goat Anti-Mouse ALCAM/CD166 Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF1172) at 5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in hepatocytes. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.
Detection of ALCAM/CD166 in Human PBMC's by Flow Cytometry
Human PBMC's were stained with Mouse Anti-Human CD3 epsilon PE‑conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB100P) and either (A) Goat Anti-Mouse ALCAM/CD166 Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF1172) or (B) isotype control antibody (Catalog # BAF108) followed by Streptavidin-Allophycocyanin (Catalog # F0050).
