Junctional adhesion molecule B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the JAM2 gene.[5][6][7] JAM2 has also been designated as CD322 (cluster of differentiation 322).

Function

immune cell types and may play a role in lymphocyte homing to secondary lymphoid organs.[7]

It is purported to promote lymphocyte transendothelial migration.[8] It might also be involved with endothelial cell polarity, by associating to cell polarity protein PARD3 (PAR-3), together with JAM3.[9]

Interactions

JAM2 has been shown to

interact with PARD3.[9]

It also interacts with the integrin dimer VLA-4 (also called α4β1).[10]
