basal cell adhesion molecule (Lutheran blood group)(BCAM) Homo sapiens This gene encodes Lutheran blood group glycoprotein, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and a receptor for the extracellular matrix protein, laminin. The protein contains five extracellular immunoglobulin domains, a single transmembrane domain, and a short C-terminal cytoplasmic tail. This protein may play a role in epithelial cell cancer and in vaso-occlusion of red blood cells in sickle cell disease. Polymorphisms in this gene define some of the antigens in the Lutheran system and also the Auberger system. Inactivating variants of this gene result in the recessive Lutheran null phenotype, Lu(a-b-), of the Lutheran blood group. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012],

BCAM (basal cell adhesion molecule; Lutheran blood group glycoprotein; CD239) is an immunoglobulin-superfamily cell-surface protein and laminin receptor involved in cell-matrix adhesion. This catalogue-backed target record connects verified human BCAM identity with Abmium research reagents.
Biological function: BCAM encodes the Lutheran blood group glycoprotein, a transmembrane immunoglobulin-superfamily receptor that binds laminin and participates in cell-matrix adhesion. Its extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains support recognition of laminin, while BCAM polymorphisms also define antigens in the Lutheran and Auberger blood group systems.
