免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from K-cadherin . at AA range: 180-260
特异性
K-cadherin Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of K-cadherin protein.
组成(Formulation)
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺(Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景(Background)
This gene encodes a member of the cadherin superfamily. Cadherins are membrane glycoproteins that mediate homophilic cell-cell adhesion and play critical roles in cell differentiation and morphogenesis. The encoded protein is a type II cadherin and may play a role in kidney development as well as endometrium and placenta formation. Decreased expression of this gene may be associated with tumor growth and metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011],
功能
function:Cadherins are calcium dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types.,similarity:Contains 5 cadherin domains.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in brain, cerebellum, and kidney. Lung, pancreas, and gastric mucosa show a weak expression. Also expressed in certain liver and kidney carcinomas.,
其他名称
CDH6; Cadherin-6; Kidney cadherin; K-cadherin
