Entry terms

  • Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule
  • ALCAM
  • Antigens, CD166
  • CD166 Antigens
  • CD6 Ligand
  • KG-CAM

Scope note

  • Cell adhesion molecule expressed on activated leukocytes, fibroblasts, and neurons. It is a ligand for CD6. ALCAM-CD6 interactions may play a role in the binding of T and B cells to activated leukocytes.
