Related Product Information for VCAM1 active protein

VCAM1, also known as vascular cell adhesion protein 1 isoform, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is a cell surface protein expressed by activated endothelial cells and certain leukocytes. VCAM1 expression is induced on endothelial cells during inflammatory bowel disease, atherosclerosis, allograft rejection and asthmatic responses. During the inflammatory adhesion mechanism, activated integrins that rolling leukocytes and attach them firmly to the vascular endothelium. Recombinant human VCAM1, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

NCBI Description

This gene is a member of the Ig superfamily and encodes a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium. This type I membrane protein mediates leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction, and may play a role in the development of artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Uniprot Description

Important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with integrin alpha-4/beta-1 (ITGA4/ITGB1) on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/ITGA4/ITGB1 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation.
