Mouse MADCAM-1 PicoKine ELISA Kit
Background/Introduction: MADCAM1(Mucosal Vascular Addressin Cell Adhesion Molecule 1), also known as MACAM1, is a protein that is encoded by the MADCAM1 gene. By PCR-based analysis of somatic cell hybrids, Leung et al(1997) mapped the MACAM1 gene to chromosome 19. The protein encoded by this gene is an endothelil cell adhesion molecule that interacts preferentially with the leukocyte beta7 integrin LPAM-1(alpha4 / beta7), Lselectin, and VLA-4(alpha4/beta1) on myeloid cells to direct leukocytes into mucosal and inflamed tissues. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is similar to ICAM-1 and VCAM-1.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
MADCAM1: Cell adhesion leukocyte receptor expressed by mucosal venules, helps to direct lymphocyte traffic into mucosal tissues including the Peyer patches and the intestinal lamina propria. It can bind both integrin alpha-4/beta-7 and L-selectin, regulating both the passage and retention of leukocytes. Isoform 2, lacking the mucin-like domain, may be specialized in supporting integrin alpha-4/beta-7-dependent adhesion strengthening, independent of L- selectin binding. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Membrane protein, integral
Cellular Component: membrane; integral to membrane
Biological Process: keratinocyte differentiation; positive regulation of leukocyte migration; cell adhesion; leukocyte migration

Product Notes
The Mouse MADCAM1 madcam1 (Catalog #AAA177290) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA177290 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse MADCAM1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MADCAM-1, 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
