CD6 Gene ID | 923 |
---|---|
CD6 Official Full Name | CD6 molecule |
CD6 Alias | T12, OX52, TP120 |
CD6 Cellular Expression | T; B |
CD6 Ligand/Receptor/Association | CD166, 3A11 |
CD6 Function | T-cell activation and cell adhesion |
CD6 Summary | This gene encodes a protein found on the outer membrane of T-lymphocytes as well as some other immune cells. The encoded protein contains three scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) domains and a binding site for an activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule. The gene product is important for continuation of T cell activation. This gene may be associated with susceptibility to multiple sclerosis (PMID: 19525953, 21849685). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011] |
