Recombinant Human CDH1 Protein, C-His-tagged
Product Description
Cat
IMP-4404
Official Symbol
CDH1
Product Overview
Recombinant extracellular domain of human E-Cad precusor (NP_004351.1) (Met 1-Ile 707) was fused with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
Description
Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins which preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells, and thus may contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell type. E-cadherin (E-Cad), also known as CDH1 and CD324, is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecule the intact function of which is crucial for the establishment and maintenance of epithelial tissue polarity and structural integrity. Mutations in CDH1 occur in diffuse type gastric cancer, lobular breast cancer, and endometrial cancer. In human cancers, partial or complete loss of E-cadherin expression correlates with malignancy. During apoptosis or with calcium influx, E-Cad is cleaved by the metalloproteinase to produce fragments of about 38 kDa (E-CAD/CTF1), 33 kDa (E-CAD/CTF2) and 29 kDa (E-CAD/CTF3), respectively. E-Cad has been identified as a potent invasive suppressor, as downregulation of E-cadherin expression is involved in dysfunction of the cell-cell adhesion system, and often correlates with strong invasive potential and poor prognosis of human carcinomas.
Expression System
HEK293
Species
Human
Tag
C-His
Predicted N Terminal
Gln 23&Asp 155
Form
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 5 % trehalose, 5% mannitol and 0.01% Tween80.
Molecular Mass
The recombinant pro form of human E-Cad consists of 696 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 77 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rh E-Cad is approximately 90.6 kDa corresponding to the mature form and pro form respectively in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
Protein length
Met1-Ile707
Endotoxin
< 1.0 EU/μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Purity
> 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Storage
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20 to -80 centigrade.
Store it under sterile conditions at -20 to -80 centigrade. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
