Function
Cell adhesion molecule that mediates cell-cell contacts and regulates T-cell responses via its interaction with ALCAM/CD166. Contributes to signaling cascades triggered by activation of the TCR/CD3 complex. Functions as a costimulatory molecule; promotes T-cell activation and proliferation.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Detected on thymocytes. Detected on peripheral blood T-cells. Detected on natural killer (NK) cells. Soluble CD6 is detected in blood serum (at protein level). Detected in spleen, thymus, appendix, lymph node and peripheral blood leukocytes. Expressed by thymocytes, mature T-cells, a subset of B-cells known as B-1 cells, and by some cells in the brain
