CD164: cDNA Clones

CD164, also known as endolyn, MGC-24, and MUC-24, is an 80 - 100 kDa transmembrane sialomucin protein that is expressed by epithelial cells, T and B cells, monocytes, hematopoietic progenitor cells, and activated basophils. CD164 functions as an adhesion molecule and a negative regulator of cell proliferation. A soluble isoform is generated by alternate splicing.
