Description | Specificity: 5H9 recognizes both the 120 kD E-cadherin and its 80 kD trypsin-resistant extracellular part. Cadherins constitute a family of transmembrane glycoproteins involved in Ca2+-dependent cell-cell interactions. The members of this family are differentially expressed in various tissues. They function in the maintenance of tissue integrity and morphogenesis. Cadherins are divided into type I and type II subgroups. Type I cadherins include epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin, cadherin-1 or uvomorulin), neural cadherin (N-cadherin or cadherin-2), placental cadherin (P-cadherin or cadherin-3) and retinal cadherin (R-cadherin or cadherin-4), whereas kidney cadherin (K-cadherin or cadherin-6) and osteoblast cadherin (OB-cadherin or cadherin-11 |
Immunogen | Source Note: 5H9 is a Mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody obtained by fusion of P3-X63-Ag 8,653 Mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a BABL/c Mouse immunized with affinity purified 80 kD extracellular fragments of E-cadherin derived from tryptic digestion of A-431 Human vulva carcinoma cells. |
