Background:	CEACAMs are highly glycosylated membrane anchored proteins. CEACAM genes make up the CEA family belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CEACAMs are involved in cell adhesion and cell-cell communication processes. CEACAM5 and 6 but NOT CEACAM8 serve as pathogen receptor (e.g. for Helicobacter pylori, Neisseria, Moraxella, Candida albicans). Immunologically they are characterized as members of the CD66 cluster of differentiation. Antibodies to CEACAMs are commonly used in immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry to identify cells expressing the glycoproteins. However, CEACAM5 and 6 are also found in serum where they can serve as tumor markers. In adults, CEACAM5 and 6 are expressed in epithelia and CEACAM6 and 8 in granulocytes.

UniProt Protein Function:	CEACAM5: Cell surface glycoprotein that plays a role in cell adhesion and in intracellular signaling. Receptor for E.coli Dr adhesins. Homodimer. Binding of E.coli Dr adhesins leads to dissociation of the homodimer. Found in adenocarcinomas of endodermally derived digestive system epithelium and fetal colon. Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CEA family.
