Question

cell surface proteins that promote cell- cell contact cause cells to do which of the following​

Answer 1

A number of cell-surface proteins (the CAMs), mediate such homophilic (like-binds-like) adhesion between cells of a single type and heterophilic adhesion between cells of different types.

Answer 2

Cell surface proteins that promote cell-cell contact are called cell adhesion molecules or CAMs. They help in stopping growth due to contact inhibition.

• CAMs are present in the membrane of the cell and facilitate homophobic as well as heterophilic binding of cells.
• The major function of CAMs is to help the binding of cells and promote cell adhesion.
• If antibodies against these CAMs are introduced in the body, they can stop cell proliferation and initiate contact inhibition.
