General description

Anti-Pan-Cadherin antibody, Mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the CH-19 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from a BALB/c mouse immunized with the synthetic peptide.
N-cadherin, also known as cadherin-2 (CDH2) or neural cadherin (NCAD) is mapped to human chromosome 18q12.1. N-cadherin has ectodomains comprising of 110 amino acidsand is called the extracellular cadherin (EC) domain. EC domains are critical for the adhesion function of N-cadherin.

Specificity

Monoclonal Anti-Pan-Cadherin recognizes Cadherin from human, mouse, monkey, bovine, chicken, rat, ferret, canine, rabbit, pig, guinea pig, hamster, cat, frog, snake and psammomys origin. Monoclonal Anti Pan-Cadherin is reactive against a highly conserved sequence at the cytoplasmic C-terminal of N-Cadherin protein.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of chicken N-Cadherin with an extra N-terminal lysine residue coupled with KLH.

Application

Anti-Pan-Cadherin antibody, Mouse monoclonal may be used in:
  • immunoblotting
  • immunofluorescence
  • immunohistochemistry

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-cadherin plays a key role in the neurulation, which involves transition of neural plate into neural tube. It is present in the synaptic membrane and dimerises upon synaptic induction and mediates synaptic activity. N-cadherin mediates cell−cell adhesion in retina but favors tumor progression in retinoblastoma. It is upregulated in carcinomas and is critical for cell invasion. Irregular distribution of N-cadherin is implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy. Mutations in the CHD2 gene may probably contribute to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Tourette disorder (TD).

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

Store at –20 °C. For continuous use, store at 2–8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.

E-cadherin is a cell-cell adhesion protein fulfilling a prominent role in epithelial differentiation. Data from model systems suggest that E-cadherin is a potent invasion/tumor suppressor of breast cancer. Consistent with this role in breast cancer progression, partial or complete loss
