Background: | CD6 is expressed at low levels on immature thymocytes, and at high levels on mature thymocytes. CD6 is also expressed at high levels on peripheral blood T cells and at low levels on most peripheral blood B cells. High levels of CD6 are present in T-cell malignancies and certain Bcell malignancies including B-CLL. CD6 not only is expressed on all CD5+ B-CLL, but also on CD5- B-CLL, suggesting a broader distribution of CD6 than CD5 in B-cell malignancies. It is found recently CD6 is also on a minor subset of myeloid malignancies. CD6 functions as an adhesion molecule as well as a costimulatory molecule for T cell activation. The ligand for CD6 is CD166. |
UniProt Protein Function: | CD6: a type I membrane protein involved in cell adhesion. Binds to CD166. Expressed on thymocytes, peripheral T cells, a subset of B cells, and a subset of neurons. Mediates the binding of developing thymocytes with thymic epithelial cells. CD6- T cells are less autoreactive than CD6+ T cells. Phosphorylated on tyrosines and serines following T cell antigen receptor signaling. Five splice-variant isoforms have been described. |

NCBI 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] |
