Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) describes a set of highly related glycoproteins involved in cell adhesion. CEA is normally produced in gastrointestinal tissue during fetal development, but the production stops before birth. CEA are glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI) cell-surface-anchored glycoproteins whose specialized sialofucosylated glycoforms serve as functional colon carcinoma L-selectin and E-selectin ligands. CEA levels are raised in some types of cancer, which means that it can be used as a tumor marker in clinical tests. Besides, Carcinoembryonic Antigen Related Cell Adhesion Molecule 6 (CEACAM6) has been identified as an interactor of CEA, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human CEA and recombinant human CEACAM6. Briefly, CEA were diluted serially in PBS with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100 microl were then transferred to CEACAM6-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-CEA pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37C. Finally, add 50 microl stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of CEA and CEACAM6 was.in a dose dependent manner.

Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5

This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein that represents the founding member of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family of proteins. The encoded protein is used as a clinical biomarker for gastrointestinal cancers and may promote tumor development through its role as a cell adhesion molecule. Additionally, the encoded protein may regulate differentiation, apoptosis, and cell polarity. This gene is present in a CEA family gene cluster on chromosome 19. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
