Official Full Name: glycoprotein A33
Also known as: A33
The glycoprotein encoded by this gene is a cell surface antigen expressed in more than 95% of human colon cancers. The open reading frame encodes a 319 amino acid polypeptide with a putative secretion signal sequence and three potential glycosylation sites. The predicted mature protein has a 213 amino acid extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a 62 amino acid intracellular tail. The extracellular domain sequence contains two domains characteristic of the CD2 subgroup of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily.
