Abstract excerpt

The cell adhesion molecule C-CAM belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is expressed in epithelia, vessel endothelia, and hematopoietic cells. Differential splicing gives rise to different isoforms, of which the major two are C-CAM1 and C-CAM2, which both have four Ig-like domains in their...
