TEM8 is a type I transmembrane protein and is a tumor-specific endothelial marker that has been implicated in colorectal cancer. This protein has also been shown to be a docking protein or receptor for Bacillus anthracistoxin, the causative agent of the disease, anthrax. The binding of the protective antigen (PA) component, of the tripartite anthrax toxin, to this receptor protein mediates delivery of toxin components to the cytosol of cells. Once inside the cell, the other two components of anthrax toxin, edema factor(EF) and lethal factor (LF) disrupt normal cellular processes. Three alternatively spliced variants have been described.Synonyms: ANTXR1, ATR, TEM8, Tumor endothelial marker 8
