Angio-Associated Migratory Cell Protein (AAMP) Reagents

Angio-associated migratory cell protein

Plays a role in angiogenesis and cell migration. In smooth muscle cell migration, may act through the RhoA pathway.

Cell membrane. Cytoplasm.

Expressed in metastatic melanoma, liver, skin, kidney, heart, lung, lymph node, skeletal muscle and brain, and also in A2058 melanoma cells and activated T-cells (at protein level). Expressed in blood vessels. Strongly expressed in endothelial cells, cyto

AAMPAngio-associated migratory cell protein

The gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is associated with angiogenesis, with potential roles in endothelial tube formation and the migration of endothelial cells. It may also regulate smooth muscle cell migration via the RhoA pathway. The encoded protein can bind to heparin and may mediate heparin-sensitive cell adhesion.
