First immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM); The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain 1 in carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) proteins. The CEA family is a group of anchored or secreted glycoproteins, expressed by epithelial cells, leukocytes, endothelial cells, and placenta. The CEA family is divided into the CEACAM and pregnancy-specific glycoprotein (PSG) subfamilies. This group represents the CEACAM subfamily. CEACAM1 has many important cellular functions: it is a cell adhesion molecule and a signaling molecule that regulates the growth of tumor cells, an angiogenic factor, and a receptor for bacterial and viral pathogens, including mouse hepatitis virus (MHV). In mice, four isoforms of CEACAM1 generated by alternative splicing have either two (D1, D4) or four (D1-D4) Ig-like domains on the cell surface.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) and similar proteins; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) and related domains. The CEA family is a group of anchored or secreted glycoproteins, expressed by epithelial cells, leukocytes, endothelial cells and placenta. The CEA family is divided into the CEACAM and pregnancy-specific glycoprotein (PSG) subfamilies. This group represents the CEACAM subfamily. CEACAM1 has many important cellular functions: it is a cell adhesion molecule and a signaling molecule that regulates the growth of tumor cells, an angiogenic factor, and a receptor for bacterial and viral pathogens, including mouse hepatitis virus (MHV). In mice, four isoforms of CEACAM1 generated by alternative splicing have either two (D1, D4) or four (D1-D4) Ig-like domains on the cell surface. This family corresponds to the D1 Ig-like domain. Also belonging to this group is the N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of the signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM) family, CD84-like family. The SLAM family is a group of immune-cell specific receptors that can regulate both adaptive and innate immune responses. SLAM family proteins are organized as an extracellular domain with having two or four Ig-like domains, a single transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic region having Tyr-based motifs. The extracellular domain is organized as a membrane-distal Ig variable (IgV) domain that is responsible for ligand recognition and a membrane-proximal truncated Ig constant-2 (IgC2) domain.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of Down Syndrome Cell Adhesion molecule (DSCAM); The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of Down Syndrome Cell Adhesion molecule (DSCAM). DSCAM is a cell adhesion molecule expressed largely in the developing nervous system. The gene encoding DSCAM is located at human chromosome 21q22, the locus associated with the intellectual disability phenotype of Down Syndrome. DSCAM is predicted to be the largest member of the IG superfamily. It has been demonstrated that DSCAM can mediate cation-independent homophilic intercellular adhesion.

N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of T-cell surface antigen CD2, and similar domains; The members here are composed of the N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain (or domain 1) of T-cell surface antigen Clusters of Differentiation (CD) 2 and similar proteins. CD2 is a T-cell specific surface glycoprotein and is critically important for mediating adhesion between T cells and antigen-presenting cells or between cytolytic T cells and target cells. CD2 is located on chromosome 1 at 1p13 in humans and on chromosome 3 in mice. CD2 contains an extracellular domain with two or Ig-like domains, a single transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic region rich in proline and basic residues.

Fifth immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of contactin; The members here are composed of the fifth immunoglobulin (Ig) domain of contactins. Contactins are neural cell adhesion molecules and are comprised of six Ig domains followed by four fibronectin type III (FnIII) domains anchored to the membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol. The first four Ig domains form the intermolecular binding fragment, which arranges as a compact U-shaped module via contacts between Ig domains 1 and 4, and between Ig domains 2 and 3. Contactin-2 (TAG-1, axonin-1) may play a part in the neuronal processes of neurite outgrowth, axon guidance and fasciculation, and neuronal migration. This group also includes contactin-1 and contactin-5. The different contactins show different expression patterns in the central nervous system. During development and in adulthood, contactin-2 is transiently expressed in subsets of central and peripheral neurons. Contactin-5 is expressed specifically in the rat postnatal nervous system, peaking at about 3 weeks postnatal, and a lack of contactin-5 (NB-2) results in an impairment of neuronal activity in the rat auditory system. Contactin-5 is highly expressed in the adult human brain in the occipital lobe and in the amygdala. Contactin-1 is differentially expressed in tumor tissues and may, through a RhoA mechanism, facilitate invasion and metastasis of human lung adenocarcinoma.
