Biolegend, 138007, Biotin anti-mouse CD144 (VE-cadherin) Antibody, 25μg

CD144, also known as vascular endothelial-cadherin (VE-cadherin), is a 120 kD member of the type II Cadherin family.  It is an endothelial specific hemophilic adhesion molecule involved in endothelial cell survival, migration, contact-dependent growth inhibition, and homophilic adhesion.  VE-cadherin is essential for maintaining the integrity of the endothelial barrier in vivo .
25μg
Verified Reactivity: Mouse
Antibody Type: Monoclonal
Host Species: Rat
Immunogen: VE-cadherin-Ig fusion protein
Formulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.
Preparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography, and conjugated with biotin under optimal conditions.
Concentration: 0.5 mg/ml
Storage & Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C. Do not freeze.
Application: FC - Quality tested
Recommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤1.0 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. It is also recommended using EDTA-based solutions for dissociating attachment-dependent cell lines.
Application Notes: Clone BV13 recognizes an epitope between aa 45 and 56, and has a binding affinity of 5-15 nM5. Additional reported applications (for relevant formats) include: Western blotting1, blocking of cell interactions in vivo1, and immunofluorescence microscopy staining4.

Q: How many biotin molecules are per antibody structure?
A: We don't routinely measure the number of biotins with our antibody products but the number of biotin molecules range from 3-6 molecules per antibody.
