A H1x-like protein (i.e., NCAMP-1) is expressed on the membrane and in GEs from fish NK-like cells. In the present study, we identify the imprinting control region mouse NCAMP-1 ortholog using NCAMP-1 polyclonal antibodies and mAb. Polychromatic flow cytometry revealed NCAMP-1 expression on PBLs (Gr-1 + PMNs were 21.1% NCAMP-1 + ; DX-5 + NK cells were 12.2% NCAMP-1 + ), mesenteric LN cells (CD11c + DCs were 23.2% NCAMP-1 + ; Gr-1 + PMNs were 24.8% NCAMP-1 + ; CD21 + B cells were 17.8% NCAMP-1 + ), and splenocytes (CD11c + were 39.6% NCAMP-1 + ; Gr-1 + PMNs were 40.9% NCAMP-1 + ; DX-5 + NK cells were 24.3% NCAMP-1 + ; CD21 + B cells were 28.5% NCAMP-1 + ). Western blot analysis using pNCAMP-1 and GEs from RAW 264.7 cells produced a 32-kDa signal. GEs from RAW 264.7 cells produced a significant reduction in Escherichia coli CFU. This antimicrobial killing activity was inhibited by pretreatment of the extract with (polyclonal) anti-NCAMP-1. Treatment with preimmune serum did not reduce bacterial cell killing. Confocal microscopy using NCAMP-1 and LAMP-1 mAb demonstrated that NCAMP-1 was located on the membrane and in cytosolic vesicles of RAW 264.7 cells and did not appear to colocalize with LAMP-1. NCAMP-1 may participate as a bifunctional protein on cells. It is expressed on the membranes of phagocytic cells, NK cells, and APCs in mice as well as in the granules of macrophages. In phagocytic cells, NCAMP-1 may participate in a nonregulated exocytosis pathway of cellular secretion.
