They have been shown to control signal complex assembly on both their cytoplasmic and extracellular domains by interacting with scaffolding containing a PDZ domain and adjacent cell receptors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJAM Mechanism\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJAMs bind to neighbouring cells by interacting with the integrins LFA-1 and Mac-1, which are found in leukocytes 2 and 41, respectively. JAMs have various effects on leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions, which are mostly mediated by the integrins mentioned earlier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJunctional Adhesion Molecule Structure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJAMs are usually 40 kDa in size. JAM is made up of an immunoglobulin-like V-set domain followed by a second immunoglobulin domain connected by a short linker sequence, according to crystallographic studies done with recombinant extracellular mouse JAMs (rsJAM) and human JAMs (hJAM). Both domains are connected by the linker, which forms extensive hydrogen bonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJAM Function\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJAMs have different functions within the cells;\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e●Cell motility - JAMs are important regulators of cell movement in various cell types, including epithelial, endothelial, leukocyte, and germ cells.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e●Cell polarity - Via their interactions with cell polarity proteins, JAM-1 and JAM-3 play important roles in controlling cell polarity. To affect cell polarity, JAM-1, JAM-2, and JAM-3 all associate with PAR-3. PAR-3 is an important component of a cell's polarity-regulating complex, and it controls polarity in a variety of cell types in various species.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e●Cell proliferation - To preserve adult tissue homeostasis, aged cells must be replaced with new cells at varying frequencies, depending on the organ.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"jam2-protein","title":"JAM2 Human, Sf9","description":"\u003cp\u003eJunctional Adhesion Molecule 2 Human Recombinant, Sf9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"synonyms_hide\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eJunctional Adhesion Molecule 2, Vascular Endothelial Junction-Associated Molecule, C21orf43, VE-JAM, JAM-2, JAM-B, VEJAM, Junctional Adhesion Molecule B, JAM-IT\/VE-JAM, CD322 Antigen, PRO245, CD322, JAMB, Junctional adhesion molecule B.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"prospecbio","offers":[{"title":"2µg","offer_id":43174725812308,"sku":"PRO-2509","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10µg","offer_id":43174725845076,"sku":"PRO-2509","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mg","offer_id":43174725877844,"sku":"PRO-2509","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/files\/Prospecbio-jam2-protein-PRO-2509.png?v=1776700269"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/collections\/Image_fb3c5010-c56d-4d02-8710-43e598902413.png?v=1700647573","url":"https:\/\/prospecbio.com\/collections\/junctional-adhesion-molecule.oembed","provider":"prospecbio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
