Comment typeDescription
FunctionICAM proteins are ligands for the leukocyte adhesion protein LFA-1 (integrin alpha-L/beta-2). During leukocyte trans- endothelial migration, ICAM1 engagement promotes the assembly of endothelial apical cups through ARHGEF26/SGEF and RHOG activation. In case of rhinovirus infection acts as a cellular receptor for the virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11173916, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17875742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1968231, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2538243}.
PolymorphismHomozygotes with ICAM1-Kalifi Met-56 seem to have an increased risk for cerebral malaria [MIM:611162].
PtmMonoubiquitinated, which is promoted by MARCH9 and leads to endocytosis.
SimilarityBelongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. ICAM family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 5 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
SubunitHomodimer (Probable). Interacts with human herpesvirus 8 MIR2 protein (Probable). Interacts with MUC1 and promotes cell aggregation in epithelial cells. Interacts with ARHGEF26/SGEF. Binds to coxsackievirus A21 capsid proteins and acts as a receptor for this virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11160747, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11173916, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12526797, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15099525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16004874, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17875742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9539703, ECO:0000305}.
