Background:	CD66e, also known as CEACAM5 (Carcinoembryonic antigen-related (CEA) cell adhesion molecule 5, is a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol- (GPI-) anchored glycoprotein. CEACAM5 and related genes make up the CEA family belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD66e is involved in cell adhesion. Additionally it serves as pathogen receptor (e.g. Helicobacter pylori, Neisseria, Moraxella, Candida albicans). Antibodies against CEACAM5 are commonly used in immunohistochemistry to identify cells expressing the glycoprotein in tissue samples. However, CEACAM5 is also found in serum where it can be used as a tumor marker. In adults, CEACAM5 is primarily expressed in epithelia of the gastrointestinal tissue commonly together with CEACAM1, CEACAM6 and CEACAM7. CD66b, also known as CEACAM8 is a GPI-anchored glycoprotein as well. CEACAM8 is involved cell-cell communication* but does NOT serve as pathogen receptor. In adults CEACAM8 is expressed in granulocytes together with CEACAM1, CEACAM3 and CEACAM6.

UniProt Protein Function:	CEACAM5: Cell surface glycoprotein that plays a role in cell adhesion and in intracellular signaling. Receptor for E.coli Dr adhesins. Homodimer. Binding of E.coli Dr adhesins leads to dissociation of the homodimer. Found in adenocarcinomas of endodermally derived digestive system epithelium and fetal colon. Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CEA family.

NCBI Summary:	Members of the CEACAM subfamily, including CEACAM5, belong to the CEA gene family. For general information on the CEA gene family, see CEACAM1 (MIM 109770).[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2009]
