Fusion proteins comprising ICAM-R polypeptides and immunoglobulin constant regions

摘要

DNA sequences encoding a novel human intercellular adhesion molecule polypeptide (designated "ICAM-R") and variants thereof are disclosed along with methods and materials for production of the same by recombinant procedures. Binding molecules specific for ICAM-R and variants thereof are also disclosed as useful in both the isolation of ICAM-R from natural cellular sources and the modulation of ligand/receptor binding biological activities of ICAM-R.
