Expression Host:Human Cells.Species:Mouse.Predicted Molecular Mass:63.4 KDa. Background:Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM-1, CD31) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein adhesion molecule in the immunoglobulin superfamily. PECAM-1 is concentrated at cell junctions and is required for transendothelial migration (TEM). The extracellular domain (ECD) of PECAM-1 has ten potential N-linked glycosylation sites and six C2-type Ig-like domains, the first of which is critical for adhesion and extravasation. The cytoplasmic domain contains immunoregulatory tyrosine-based inhibitory and switch motifs (ITIM, ITSM) that mediate both inhibition and activation via phosphotyrosine-mediated engagement of SH2-containing signaling molecules. Expression is restricted to cells involved in circulation, especially endothelial cells, platelets, monocytes, neutrophils and lymphocyte subsets. PECAM-1 participates with other adhesion molecules in some functions, but is the critical molecule for TEM. Homotypic PECAM-1 adhesion in trans, combined with cycling of PECAM-1 to and from surface-connected endothelial cell vesicles, leads leukocytes across endothelial tight junctions.
