Preparation and Storage

Background: TCAM-1

Mouse TCAM-1 (Testicular cell adhesion molecule-1) is a 59 kDa (predicted) type I transmembrane protein that is a member of the intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily (1). It is synthesized from a 548 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains an 18 aa signal sequence, a 465 aa extracellular region, a 25 aa transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic tail of 40 aa. The extracellular region contains five Ig domains and six potential N‑linked glycosylation sites (1). Mouse TCAM‑1 is 89% identical to rat TCAM‑1. Expression of TCAM‑1 is detected in the embryo on day 17 and in adult testis, and correlates with the presence of pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids in mouse testis development (1).
