Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) and similar proteins; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain in carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) related cell adhesion molecule (CEACAM) and related domains. The CEA family is a group of anchored or secreted glycoproteins, expressed by epithelial cells, leukocytes, endothelial cells and placenta. The CEA family is divided into the CEACAM and pregnancy-specific glycoprotein (PSG) subfamilies. This group represents the CEACAM subfamily. CEACAM1 has many important cellular functions: it is a cell adhesion molecule and a signaling molecule that regulates the growth of tumor cells, an angiogenic factor, and a receptor for bacterial and viral pathogens, including mouse hepatitis virus (MHV). In mice, four isoforms of CEACAM1 generated by alternative splicing have either two (D1, D4) or four (D1-D4) Ig-like domains on the cell surface. This family corresponds to the D1 Ig-like domain. Also belonging to this group is the N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of the signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM) family, CD84-like family. The SLAM family is a group of immune-cell specific receptors that can regulate both adaptive and innate immune responses. SLAM family proteins are organized as an extracellular domain with having two or four Ig-like domains, a single transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic region having Tyr-based motifs. The extracellular domain is organized as a membrane-distal Ig variable (IgV) domain that is responsible for ligand recognition and a membrane-proximal truncated Ig constant-2 (IgC2) domain.

Immunoglobulin domain; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig) domain found in the Ig superfamily. The Ig superfamily is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. Members of this group are components of immunoglobulin, neuroglia, cell surface glycoproteins, including T-cell receptors, CD2, CD4, CD8, and membrane glycoproteins, including butyrophilin and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan core protein. A predominant feature of most Ig domains is a disulfide bridge connecting the two beta-sheets with a tryptophan residue packed against the disulfide bond. Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. Typically, the V-set domains have A, B, E, and D strands in one sheet and A', G, F, C, C' and C" in the other. The structures in C1-set are smaller than those in the V-set; they have one beta sheet that is formed by strands A, B, E, and D and the other by strands G, F, C, and C'. Moreover, a C1-set Ig domain contains a short C' strand (three residues) and lacks A' and C" strand. Unlike other Ig domain sets, C2-set structures do not have a D strand. Like the V-set Ig domains, members of the I-set have a discontinuous A strand, but lack a C" strand.

agrin-responsive first immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig1) of the MuSK ectodomain; a member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the first immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig1) of the Muscle-specific kinase (MuSK). MuSK is a receptor tyrosine kinase specifically expressed in skeletal muscle, where it plays a central role in the formation and maintenance of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). MuSK is activated by agrin, a neuron-derived heparan sulfate proteoglycan. The activation of MUSK in myotubes regulates the formation of NMJs through the regulation of different processes including the specific expression of genes in subsynaptic nuclei, the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and the clustering of the acetylcholine receptors (AChR) in the postsynaptic membrane. The Ig superfamily (IgSF) is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. IgSF domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. Unlike the V-set, one of the distinctive features of I-set domains is the lack of a C" strand. The structure of the MuSK lacks this strand and thus it belongs to the I-set of the IgSF. I-set domains are found in several cell adhesion molecules (such as VCAM, ICAM, and MADCAM), and are also present in numerous other diverse protein families, including several tyrosine-protein kinase receptors, the hemolymph protein hemolin, the muscle proteins titin, telokin, and twitchin, the neuronal adhesion molecule axonin-1, and the signaling molecule semaphorin 4D that is involved in axonal guidance, immune function and angiogenesis.

Sixth immunoglobulin domain of the Drosophila melanogaster Dscam protein, and similar domains; a member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the sixth immunoglobulin domain of the Drosophila melanogaster Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule (DSCAM) protein and similar proteins. Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule (DSCAM) is a cell adhesion molecule that plays critical roles in neural development, including axon guidance and branching, axon target recognition, self-avoidance and synaptic formation. DSCAM belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and contributes to defects in the central nervous system in Down syndrome patients. Vertebrate DSCAMs differ from Drosophila Dscam1 in that they lack the extensive alternative splicing that occurs in the insect gene. Drosophila melanogaster Dscam has 38,016 isoforms generated by the alternative splicing of four variable exon clusters, which allows every neuron in the fly to display a distinctive set of Dscam proteins on its cell surface. Drosophila Dscam1 is a cell-surface protein that plays important roles in neural development and axon tiling of neurons. It is shown that thousands of isoforms bind themselves through specific homophilic (self-binding) interactions, a process which mediates cellular self-recognition. Drosophila Dscam2 is also alternatively spliced and plays a key role in the development of two visual system neurons, monopolar cells L1 and L2. This group is a member of the I-set Ig domains, having A-B-E-D strands in one beta-sheet and A'-G-F-C-C' in the other. Like the V-set Ig domains, members of the I-set have a discontinuous A strand but lack a C" strand.

Fourth Ig domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule contactin-2, and similar domains; The members here are composed of the fourth Ig domain of the neural cell adhesion molecule contactin-2. Contactins are comprised of six Ig domains followed by four fibronectin type III (FnIII) domains anchored to the membrane by glycosylphosphatidylinositol. Contactin-2 (also called TAG-1, axonin-1) facilitates cell adhesion by homophilic binding between molecules in apposed membranes. The first four Ig domains form the intermolecular binding fragment which arranges as a compact U-shaped module by contacts between Ig domains 1 and 4, and domains 2 and 3. It has been proposed that a linear zipper-like array forms, from contactin-2 molecules alternatively provided by the two apposed membranes.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors (R), alpha and beta; member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors (R), alpha (also known as cluster of differentiation (CD) 140a), and beta (also known as CD140b). PDGF is a potent mitogen for connective tissue cells. PDGF-stimulated processes are mediated by three different PDGFs (PDGF-A,PDGF-B, and PDGF-C). PDGFRalpha binds to all three PDGFs, whereas the PDGFRbeta binds only to PDGF-B. PDGFRs alpha and beta have similar organization: an extracellular component with five Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic portion having protein tyrosine kinase activity. In mice, PDGFRalpha and PDGFRbeta are essential for normal development.

Immunoglobulin domain; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig) domain found in the Ig superfamily. The Ig superfamily is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. Members of this group are components of immunoglobulin, neuroglia, cell surface glycoproteins, including T-cell receptors, CD2, CD4, CD8, and membrane glycoproteins, including butyrophilin and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan core protein. A predominant feature of most Ig domains is a disulfide bridge connecting the two beta-sheets with a tryptophan residue packed against the disulfide bond. Ig superfamily (IgSF) domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. Typically, the V-set domains have A, B, E, and D strands in one sheet and A', G, F, C, C' and C" in the other. The structures in C1-set are smaller than those in the V-set; they have one beta sheet that is formed by strands A, B, E, and D and the other by strands G, F, C, and C'. Moreover, a C1-set Ig domain contains a short C' strand (three residues) and lacks A' and C" strand. Unlike other Ig domain sets, C2-set structures do not have a D strand. Like the V-set Ig domains, members of the I-set have a discontinuous A strand, but lack a C" strand.

Immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor (R) and similar proteins; member of the I-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor (R) and related proteins. The VEGFRs have an extracellular component with seven Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain interrupted by a kinase-insert domain. The VEGFR family consists of three members: VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1) and VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). VEGF-A interacts with both VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2. VEGFR-1 binds strongest to VEGF; VEGF-2 binds more weakly. VEGFR-3 appears not to bind VEGF, but binds other members of the VEGF family (VEGF-C and -D). VEGFRs bind VEGFs with high affinity with the IG-like domains. VEGF-A is important to the growth and maintenance of vascular endothelial cells and to the development of new blood- and lymphatic-vessels in physiological and pathological states. VEGFR-2 is a major mediator of the mitogenic, angiogenic, and microvascular permeability-enhancing effects of VEGF-A. VEGFR-1 may play an inhibitory part in these processes by binding VEGF and interfering with its interaction with VEGFR-2. VEGFR-1 has a signaling role in mediating monocyte chemotaxis. VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 may mediate a chemotactic and a survival signal in hematopoietic stem cells or leukemia cells. VEGFR-3 has been shown to be involved in tumor angiogenesis and growth. This group also contains alpha-type platelet-derived growth factor receptor precursor (PDGFR)-alpha (CD140a), and PDGFR-beta (CD140b). PDGFRs alpha and beta have an extracellular component with five Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic portion that has protein tyrosine kinase activity.

First Ig-like domain of Junctional adhesion molecule-1 (JAM1)and similar domains; a member of the V-set of IgSF domains; The members here are composed of the first Ig-like domain of Junctional Adhesion Molecule-1 (JAM1)and similar domains. JAM1 is an immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) protein with two Ig-like domains in its extracellular region; it plays a role in the formation of endothelial and epithelial tight junction and acts as a receptor for mammalian reovirus sigma-1. The IgSF is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. The two sheets are linked together by a conserved disulfide bond between B strand and F strand. IgSF domains can be divided into 4 main classes based on their structures and sequences: the Variable (V), Constant 1 (C1), Constant 2 (C2), and Intermediate (I) sets. The first Ig-like domain of JAM1 is a member of the V-set Ig domains, having A-B-E-D strands in one beta-sheet and A'-G-F-C-C'-C" in the other.
