Background: BCAM
Mouse BCAM (Basal cell adhesion molecule, B-CAM cell surface glycoprotein,Lutheran antigen, and CD239) is a 70-90 kDa membrane glycoprotein. BCAM has wide tissue distribution and is expressed on erythrocytes, the endothelium of blood vessels and on the basal layer of cells in the epithelia. The expression of BCAM in normal tissues is higher in fetal versus adult tissues. BCAM expression is also upregulated in activated keratinocytes and following malignant transformation in some cell types in vivo and in vitro. BCAM has been shown to be an adhesion molecule that binds laminin, a basement membrane protein involved in cell differentiation, adhesion, migration and proliferation. Over aa 1-541, mouse BCAM is 91% identical to rat BCAM.
