Gene: ICAM1

Alternate names for this Gene: BB2|CD54|P3.58

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein which is typically expressed on endothelial cells and cells of the immune system. It binds to integrins of type CD11a / CD18, or CD11b / CD18 and is also exploited by Rhinovirus as a receptor.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19p13.2

Description of this Gene: intercellular adhesion molecule 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
