Swiss-port # Q13477 Human Mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | MADCAM1 |
| Gene Full Name | mucosal vascular addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 |
| Background | The protein encoded by this gene is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule that interacts preferentially with the leukocyte beta7 integrin LPAM-1 (alpha4beta7), L-selectin, and VLA-4 (alpha4beta1) on myeloid cells to direct leukocytes into mucosal and inflamed tissues. It is a member of the immunoglobulin family and is similar to ICAM1 and VCAM1. At least seven alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different protein isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined.

| Function | Cell adhesion leukocyte receptor expressed by mucosal venules, helps to direct lymphocyte traffic into mucosal tissues including the Peyer patches and the intestinal lamina propria. It can bind both integrin alpha-4/beta-7 and L-selectin, regulating both the passage and retention of leukocytes. Isoform 2, lacking the mucin-like domain, may be specialized in supporting integrin alpha-4/beta-7-dependent adhesion strengthening, independent of L-selectin binding. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 40 kDa |
| PTM | The Ser/Thr-rich mucin-like domain may provide possible sites for O-glycosylation. [UniProt] |
