Anti-CEA & Anti-CD3e Bispecific Antibody (scFv), BiTE, Biotinylated, Recombinant

Description

CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen), also kown as CEACAM5, BGP1 and CD66e, is a member of the CEA gene family belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). CEA family members are either transmembrane or GPI-anchored within two subgroups: the CEA cell adhesion molecules (CEACAM) and the pregnancy-specific glycoproteins.  In human, 7 CEACAMs have been identified including 3 transmembrane proteins (CEACAM1, 3, 4) and 4 GPI-anchored molecules (CEACAM5-8). Human CEA or CEACAM-5 contains 1Ig-like V-type (IgV) domain at the N-terminus, followed by 6 Ig-like C2-type (IgC2) domain and a GPI anchor.  It exists as a homodimer. Intriguingly orthologs of human CEA have not been found in other species. Human CEA is expressed primarily in epithelial cells and functions as an adhesion molecule through homophilic and heterophilic interactions with CEACAM1/CD66a. CEA plays an important role in the development and maintenance of epithelial architecture. CEA is up-regulated in a wide array of human tumors and has been used a s a common cancer biomarker. CEA can promote tumor cell migration, invasion, adhesion, and metastasis.  It may also contribute to tumorigenicity by inhibiting cellular differentiation. GPI-anchored CEA can be released by GPI­PLD, resulting in a soluble molecule that induces tumor metastasis.  CEA has been considered as a a target for immunotherapy.
