Alternative Names
L-selectin (SELL); CD62 antigen-like family member L; Leukocyte adhesion molecule 1; Leukocyte surface antigen Leu-8; Leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1; Lymph node homing receptor; TQ1; gp90-MEL; LNHR and LYAM1
Background
SELL contains one C-type lectin domain, one EGF-like domain and two Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains. SELL is expressed in B-cell lines and T-lymphocytes. SELL functions as a cell surface adhesion protein and mediates the adherence of lymphocytes to endothelial cells of high endothelial venules in peripheral lymph nodes. In addition, SELL also promotes initial tethering and rolling of leukocytes in endothelia.
