Human ICAM-1 / CD54 ELISA Kit | ICAM-1 / CD54 elisa kit
ICAM-1 / CD54 Human ELISA Kit
Background: ICAM-1 (Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1) also known as CD54 (Cluster of Differentiation 54) is a cell surface glycoprotein which is typically expressed on endothelial cells and cells of the immune system. It binds to integrins of type CD11a / CD18, or CD11b / CD18 and is also exploited by rhinovirus as a receptor. ICAM-1 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, it can be induced by interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and is expressed by the vascular endothelium, macrophages, and lymphocytes.It is also an endothelial- and leukocyte-associated transmembrane protein long known for its importance in stabilizing cell-cell interactions and facilitating leukocyte endothelial transmigration. More recently, ICAM-1 has been characterized as a site for the cellular entry of human rhinovirus.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein which is typically expressed on endothelial cells and cells of the immune system. It binds to integrins of type CD11a / CD18, or CD11b / CD18 and is also exploited by Rhinovirus as a receptor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Function: ICAM proteins are ligands for the leukocyte adhesion protein LFA-1 (integrin alpha-L/beta-2). During leukocyte trans-endothelial migration, ICAM1 engagement promotes the assembly of endothelial apical cups through ARHGEF26/SGEF and RHOG activation. In case of rhinovirus infection acts as a cellular receptor for the virus. Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.18
Subunit structure: Homodimer
Probable. Interacts with human herpesvirus 8 MIR2 protein
Probable. Interacts with MUC1 and promotes cell aggregation in epithelial cells. Interacts with ARHGEF26/SGEF. Binds to coxsackievirus A21 capsid proteins and acts as a receptor for this virus. Ref.14 Ref.15 Ref.18 Ref.28 Ref.29
Subcellular location: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Post-translational modification: Monoubiquitinated, which is promoted by MARCH9 and leads to endocytosis.
Polymorphism: Homozygotes with ICAM1-Kalifi Met-56 seem to have an increased risk for cerebral malaria [
MIM:611162].
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. ICAM family.Contains 5 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.

Product Notes
The Human ICAM-1 / CD54 icam1 (Catalog #AAA355304) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA355304 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ICAM-1 / CD54. AAA Biotech's ICAM-1 / CD54 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Quantitative sELISA (EIA). For quantitative detection of ICAM-1 in human serum, plasma, body fluids, tissue lysates or cell culture supernatants. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ICAM-1 / CD54 icam1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ICAM-1 / CD54, 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
