Anti-CDH3 antibody produced in rabbit

产品说明

一般描述

Cadherins, calcium-dependent adhesion molecules, are a class of type-1 transmembrane proteins involved in cell adhesion where in they ensure that cells within tissues are bound together. P-cadherin (placental) (CDH3) is an adhesion glycoprotein comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. CDH3 (gene) interacts with other molecules including CDH1, β-catenin, plakoglobin, nephrin and catenin (cadherin-associated protein), α 1. Mutated P-cadherin (placental) has been associated with congential hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.

特异性

Anti-CDH3 polyclonal antibody reacts with pig, mouse, human, and bovine P-cadherin proteins.

免疫原

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human CDH3

应用

Anti-CDH3 polyclonal antibody is used to tag placental-specific cadherin proteins for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in cells and tissues by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to study the role of P-cadherin in cell adhesion and protein:protein interactions.

生化/生理作用

CDH3 is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily. The protein is a calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Its gene is located in a six-cadherin cluster in a region on the long arm of chromosome 16 that is involved in loss of heterozygosity events in breast and prostate cancer. In addition, aberrant expression of this protein is observed in cervical adenocarcinomas. Mutations in its gene have been associated with congential hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.This gene is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily.
