Binding studies with a CD6 immunoglobulin fusion protein (CD6 Rg) resulted in the identification and cloning of a CD6 ligand. This ligand was found to be a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family and was named ALCAM (activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule). Cell adhesion assays showed that CD6-ALCAM interactions mediate thymocyte-thymic epithelium cell binding. ALCAM is also expressed by activated leukocytes and neurons and may be involved in interactions between T cells and activated leukocytes and between cells of the immune and nervous systems, respectively. Herein we describe the preparation of domain-specific murine CD6 Rg fusion proteins and show that the membrane-proximal SRCR (scavenger receptor cysteine-rich) domain of CD6 contains the ALCAM binding site. We also show that mAbs which bind to this domain preferentially block CD6-ALCAM binding. These results demonstrate that the membrane-proximal SRCR domain of CD6 is necessary for CD6 binding to ALCAM and provide the first direct evidence for the interaction of an SRCR domain with a ligand.
