QuickView for CEACAM5 (gene)
- Gene Symbol:
- CEACAM5
Homo sapiens - Full name:
- carcinoembryonic antigen related cell adhesion molecule 5
- Synonyms:
- CD66e, CEA, carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5, meconium antigen 100
- Genomic Location:
- Chr 19: 46904370-46926277
- Description:
-
This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein that represents the founding member of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family of proteins. The encoded protein is used as a clinical biomarker for gastrointestinal cancers and may promote tumor development through its role as a cell adhesion molecule. Additionally, the encoded protein may regulate di...
