Informations sur le gène

human ... PCDH8(5100)

Description générale

PCDH8 (protocadherin 8) belongs to the protocadherin subfamily of cadherin superfamily. All protocadherins share six ertracellular cadherin domains and a transmembrane domain, with different cytoplasmic domains. This gene is localized to human chromosome 13q14.3, and shows expression in brain.

Immunogène

protocadherin 8 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

PCDH8 (protocadherin 8) is a type of protocahderin, which are involved in cell-cell adhesion, signal transmission, growth regulation and tumor suppression. PCDH8 is a tumor suppressor, and it is inactivated by promoter methylation in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), clear cell renal cell carcinoma and prostate cancer, where it is associated with tumor progression. It might have potential as a marker for the prognosis of the same. This gene is linked with schizophrenia, and also associated with psychomotor delay in retinoblastoma patients.

Caractéristiques et avantages

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
