Product Description

This peptide antibody is broadly cross-reactive with all members of the cadherin family of proteins including N-cadherin, E-cadherin, P-cadherin, and R-cadherin. The antibody also displays broad species cross-reactivity including human, bovine, mouse, rat, chicken, amphibian, as well as other species. Rabbit anti-pan-Cadherin is useful as both a ubiquitous cadherin probe as well as a marker for adherens junctions. 71-7100 was used successfully in the immunofluorescence analysis of pan cadherin in MDCK cells. Pan Cadherin including CDH1, CDH2, CDH3, CDH4 protein belong to a family of transmembrane molecules that mediate calcium-dependent intercellular adhesion. Cadherins are involved in controlling morphogenetic movements during development and regulate cell surface adhesion through homotypic adhesion with the same cadherin species. N-cadherin's function is dependent on its association with the actin-cytoskeleton and is mediated through interactions between the C-terminal region of N-cadherin and the cytoplasmic catenin proteins. The stability of this association is regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of beta-catenin.This gene is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein is a calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycopr
