Description | Specificity: anti-human CEACAM5,6 (CEA;NCA,CD66c). Background: CEA-related cell adhesion molecules (CEACAM) belong to the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family (1). The CEA family proteins belong to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily and are composed of one Ig variable-like (IgV) and a varying number (0-6) of Ig constant-like (IgC) domains. CEACAM molecules are membrane-bound either via a transmembrane domain or a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor. CEACAM molecules are differentially expressed in epithelial cells or in leucocytes. Over-expression of CEA/CEACAM5 in tumors of epithelial origin is the basis of its wide-spread use as a tumor marker (2). CEACAM6 expression is strongly upregulated already during early stages of adenoca |
