Product Specs

Introduction
Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-5 (ICAM-5) is a glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin family and residing in the cell membrane. It is primarily found in telencephalic neurons, where it participates in two adhesion activities: heterophilic binding between neurons and leukocytes, and homophilic binding between neurons. ICAM-5 expression is restricted to telencephalic regions of the central nervous system. Like other ICAM molecules, ICAM-5 binds to LFA-1, a leukocyte integrin.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Function

ICAM-5 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that contains nine immunoglobulin-like C2-type domains in its extracellular region . These domains are involved in the binding interactions with other cells. The protein also has a 28 amino acid transmembrane domain and a 64 amino acid cytoplasmic domain . The extracellular domain of ICAM-5 is heavily glycosylated, which is important for its stability and function.

ICAM-5 is predominantly expressed on the surface of telencephalic neurons in the brain . It exhibits two types of adhesion activities: homophilic binding, which occurs between neurons, and heterophilic binding, which occurs between neurons and leukocytes . This dual binding capability suggests that ICAM-5 plays a significant role in neuron-neuron and neuron-immune cell interactions.

Biological Significance

The primary function of ICAM-5 is to mediate cell-cell adhesion in the central nervous system. It is believed to be involved in the formation and maintenance of synaptic connections between neurons . Additionally, ICAM-5 may play a role in neuroinflammatory processes by interacting with microglial cells, which are the resident immune cells of the brain .

ICAM-5 has also been implicated in various neurological conditions. For instance, alterations in ICAM-5 expression have been observed in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease . This suggests that ICAM-5 could be a potential target for therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating neuroinflammation and synaptic function.

Recombinant ICAM-5

Recombinant ICAM-5 is produced using genetic engineering techniques, where the ICAM-5 gene is inserted into a host cell line, such as HEK293 cells, to produce the protein . The recombinant protein is then purified using chromatographic techniques to ensure high purity and functionality . Recombinant ICAM-5 is used in various research applications, including studies on cell adhesion, neuroinflammation, and synaptic function.
