Anti-E-Cadherin (Cytoplasmic) Recombinant Chicken Chimeric mAb (BSA and Azide free) (M168)
Our chicken Anti-E-Cadherin (Cytoplasmic) carrier-free recombinant monoclonal antibody is a chimeric antibody derived from clone M168. It detects human, mouse, and rat E-Cadherin (Cytoplasmic) and is purified by affinity chromatography. Works in ELISA, WB, ICC, IHC, IP.
Anti-E-Cadherin (Cytoplasmic) Recombinant Chicken Chimeric mAb (BSA and Azide free)
Cadherins are transmembrane glycoproteins vital in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion during tissue differentiation. Cadherins cluster to form foci of homophilic binding units. A key determinant to the strength of the cadherin-mediated adhesion may be by the juxtamembrane region in cadherins. This region induces clustering and also binds to the protein p120 catenin. The cytoplasmic region is highly conserved in sequence and has been shown experimentally to regulate the cell-cell binding function of the extracellular domain of E-cadherin, possibly through interaction with the cytoskeleton. Many cadherins are regulated by phosphorylation, including N-cadherin and E-cadherin. N-cadherin is phosphorylated by c-Src at Tyr-820, Tyr-853, Tyr-860, Tyr-884, and Tyr-886. Phosphorylation of Tyr-860 can disrupt cadherin binding to β-catenin. Since many of these tyrosine sites are conserved in the cadherin family, phosphorylation of these sites may be critical for cadherin function.

This recombinant antibody is a chimeric antibody created by replacing the mouse heavy and light constant regions of clone M168 with chicken IgY heavy and light constant regions. As such this antibody retains the same binding performance as the original clone M168 but can be detected using standard anti-chicken secondary antibodies allowing flexibility for multiplexing applications. This antibody is expressed recombinantly in mammalian cells and then affinity purified from the cell culture media.
