MCAM - melanoma cell adhesion molecule Gene
Also Known as CD146; MUC18; HEMCAM; METCAM; MelCAM
Species: Homo sapiens
About MCAM
This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 279 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in fat (RPKM 237.1), placenta (RPKM 102.0) and 17 other tissues.
Summary
Involved in glomerular filtration and vascular wound healing. Acts upstream of or within angiogenesis. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Biomarker of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and uveal melanoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
