Description
Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Cadherin-1(CDH1) detection. Tested with WB in Human. No cross reactivity with other proteins. CDH1(Cadherin 1), also known as ECAD or UVO, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH1 gene. Cadherin-1 is a classical member of the cadherin superfamily. By Southern analysis of DNA from a panel of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids, Mansouri et al.(1987, 1988) assigned the UVO gene to 16q(16p11-qter). Frebourg et al.(2006) found that in human embryos CDH1 is highly expressed at 4 and 5 weeks in the frontonasal prominence and at 6 weeks in the lateral and medial nasal prominences, and is therefore expressed during critical stages of lip and palate development. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells. Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7.
