Mouse Anti-Human Cadherin 12, Type 2 Monoclonal Antibody

• Cat.No.: CAB11506MH
• Product Overview: Mouse Monoclonal Antibody to Human Cadherin 12, Type 2

Specification

• Antigen Description: Cadherins (Calcium dependent adhesion molecules) are a class of transmembrane proteins. They play important roles in cell adhesion, ensuring that cells within tissues are bound together. They are dependent on calcium(Ca2+) ions to function. Mature cadherin proteins are composed of a large N-terminal extracellular domain, a single membrane-spanning domain, and a small highly conserved C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. Type II (atypical) cadherins are defined based on their lack of an HAV cell adhesion recognition sequence specific to type I cadherins. It has been observed that cells containing a specific cadherin subtype tend to cluster together to the exclusion of other types, both in cell culture and during development. Cadherin-12 also known as CDH12, is a type I I classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily of integral membrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion. Cadherin-12 appears to be expressed specifically in the brain and its temporal pattern of expression would be consistent with a role during a critical period of neuronal development, perhaps specifically during synaptogenesis.
• Specificity: Human Cadherin-12 / CDH12. No cross-reactivity in ELISA with Human Cadherin-4; Human Cadherin-6; Human Cadherin-8; Human E-Cadherin; Human cell lysate (293 cell line)
• Immunogen: Recombinant Human Cadherin-12 / CDH12 Protein
• Host: Mouse
• Isotype: N/A
• Species: Human
• Clone: 5I9H5
• Applications: WB; ELISA
• Dilution: Western blot: This antibody can be used at 1-2 μg/mL with the appropriate secondary reagents to detect Human CDH12 in WB. Using a DAB detection system, the detection limit for Human CDH12 is approximately 20 ng/lane under non-reducing conditions and 2 ng/lane under reducing conditions.ELISA: This antibody can be used at 0.5-1 μg/mL with the appropriate secondary reagents to detect Human CDH12. The detection limit for Human CDH12 is approximately 0.078 ng/well.
• Preparation: This antibody was produced from a hybridoma resulting from the fusion of a mouse myeloma with B cells obtained from a mouse immunized with purified, human cell-derived, recombinant Human Cadherin-12 / CDH12. The IgG fraction of the cell culture supernatant was purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.
• Format: 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS with 5% trehalose
• Storage: This antibody can be stored at 2-8 °C for one month without detectable loss of activity. Antibody products are stable for twelve months from date of receipt when stored at -20 to -70°C. Preservative-Free.Sodium azide is recommended to avoid contamination (final concentration 0.05%-0.1%). It is toxic to cells and should be disposed of properly. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
