Gene name

VCAM1 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

CD106

Description

Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

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]
