N-Cadherin antibody (Extracellular Domain)

Catalog No. ABIN6939013

Product Details anti-N-Cadherin Antibody

Target: N-Cadherin (CDH2) (Cadherin 2 (CDH2))

Binding Specificity: Extracellular Domain

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This N-Cadherin antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Specificity: Recognizes a protein of ~140 kDa, identified as N-Cadherin (NCAD), also known as CD325. NCAD is a member of the Cadherin superfamily, and consists of five extracellular repeats, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. CD325 deficient mice die at day 10 of gestation and embryos display major heart defects and malformed neural tubes and somites. Consistent with this, CD325 has been implicated in several aspects of cardiac development including the precardiac mesoderm, establishment of left-right symmetry and cardiac looping morphogenesis. Furthermore, CD325 is normally involved in inducing cell cycle arrest and its expression is frequently deregulated in cancer cells.Studies have linked N-cadherin to cancer metastasis by showing the aggressive tumor cells had preferentially turned on N-cadherin as opposed to E- or P-cadherin.
