* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.

Background: ALCAM/CD166 is a member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily belonging to a subgroup with five extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains(VVC2C2C2), which includes MCAM/CD146/MUC18 and B-CAM/Lutheran. These molecules are involved in the development and maintenance of tissue architecture, neurogenesis, hematopoiesis, immune responses and tumor progression. ALCAM/CD166 mediates cell-cell clustering through homophilic (ALCAM-ALCAM) and heterophilic (ALCAM-CD6) interactions. Its pattern of expression in human tissues and cells is broad and includes epithelia, neurons, lymphoid and myeloid cells, hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells. The relevance of the engagement of the heterophilic pair CD166-CD6 for optimal activation of T cells has been recently demonstrated.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM), also known as CD166 (cluster of differentiation 166), which is a member of a subfamily of immunoglobulin receptors with five immunoglobulin-like domains (VVC2C2C2) in the extracellular domain. This protein binds to T-cell differentiation antigene CD6, and is implicated in the processes of cell adhesion and migration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
Uniprot Description
ALCAM: Cell adhesion molecule that binds to CD6. Involved in neurite extension by neurons via heterophilic and homophilic interactions. May play a role in the binding of T- and B-cells to activated leukocytes, as well as in interactions between cells of the nervous system. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Cell adhesion
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 3q13.1
Cellular Component: focal adhesion; cell soma; axon; integral to membrane; external side of plasma membrane
Molecular Function: protein binding; receptor binding

Product Notes
The Human ALCAM alcam (Catalog #AAA9716226) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9716226 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ALCAM. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule (ALCAM), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
