A monoclonal antibody from mouse specific for Cadherin-2\/N-Cadherin has been pre-coated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: NSO; Immunogen sequence: D160-A724) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Cadherin-2\/N Cadherin is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is added and unbound conjugates are washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB is used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB is catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Human Cadherin-2\/N-Cadherin amount of sample captured in plate.\u003cbr\u003e\nN Cadherin, also known as Cadherin-2 (CDH2), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH2 gene. It is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily. This gene is mapped to 18q12.1. N-Cadherin is expressed in the brain, skeletal and cardiac muscle. N Cadherin is commonly found in cancer cells and provides a mechanism for transendothelial migration. It is a calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein comprising five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. The protein functions during gastrulation and is required for establishment of left-right asymmetry. At certain central nervous system synapses, presynaptic to postsynaptic adhesion is mediated at least in part by this gene product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nN-Cadherin also known as CDH2 or neuronal cadherin is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein. It is characterized by its role in mediating intercellular connections primarily through its presence on neurons fibroblasts and certain epithelial cells. N-Cadherin has an approximate mass of 130 kDa. The protein is integral in forming homophilic interactions where N-Cadherin molecules on adjacent cells interact to establish robust cell-cell adhesion.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nN-Cadherin significantly influences cell-cell interaction and communication facilitating cellular adhesion and signal transduction. It is a vital component of adherens junctions contributing to tissue morphogenesis and stability. N-Cadherin interacts with other cytoplasmic proteins such as catenins forming a complex essential for linking the actin cytoskeleton to the cell membrane. This interaction affects cellular behaviors including migration and differentiation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nN-Cadherin plays a significant role in the neural development and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathways important for development and cancer progression. It engages with related proteins such as beta-catenin which helps transduce signals within these pathways. N-Cadherin's interactions within these pathways highlight its role in maintaining multicellular structure and signaling processes important for development and pathogenesis.\u003cbr\u003e\nN-Cadherin is associated with cancer and heart disease. In cancer particularly in the context of the EMT N-Cadherin facilitates tumor progression and metastasis cooperating with proteins like Twist and Snail to promote these processes. In heart disease alterations in N-Cadherin expression and function can impact cardiac muscle integrity and syncytium highlighting potential interactions with connexin43 to maintain cardiac function. Understanding these associations provides insights into therapeutic targets for these conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843650506921,"sku":"ab213756","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab213756","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
