FIGURE: 1 / 11
Source: Monoclonal antibody was obtained by fusing the P3-X63-Ag8-U1 mouse myeloma cell-line with spleen cells of Donryu rat after immunization with mouse endoderm cell line PSA5-E.
Specificity: This antibody specifically reacts with mouse P-cadherin. This antibody inhibits P-cadherin-dependent cell-cell contact.
Cross reactivity: This antibody does not react with human or chicken P-cadherin.
Storage: 4°C This product does not contain preservative. The stock solution (2.0 mg/ml) should be stored in aliquots at -20°C for 1 year, or should be stored at 4°C for 6 months after adding 0.1% sodium azide. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution: Dissolve the lyophilized antibody in 50 µl of distilled water (final concentration: 2.0 mg/ml). This solution can be used as a stock solution. If dilution is necessary for your application, dilute the stock solution with the following Dilution solution just prior to use. When the entire amount of antibody is to be used over a short time period, it may be dissolved directly in 500 µl or more of the Dilution solution. Be sure to store the antibody at a minimum concentration of 2.0 mg/ml. A lower antibody concentration may result in decreased stability. Reconstituted antibody solution should contain 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative when stored at 4°C.
Ca2+ should be contained in the buffers to stabilize cadherin antigen.
P-cadherin, also known as Cadherin-3, is a Type 1 cadherin protein that belongs to the cadherin superfamily. Type 1 cadherins are single-pass transmembrane proteins that have 5 extracellular cadherin repeats and an intracellular domain that binds p120-catenin and beta-catenin. Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoproteins responsible for a range of processes including development, wound healing, cell-cell signaling, cell growth and differentiation. P-cadherin is expressed in human fetal structures, and in adult tissues such as the basal layer of the epidermis, breast, prostate, ovary, cervix, hair follicle, and corneal endothelium. P-cadherin expression has also been reported on embryonic stem cells, and stem cells of the normal mammary gland, and hair follicle. Overexpression of P-cadherin has been associated with poor prognosis in breast, prostate, ovary, colon, and stomach carcinomas. Mutations in CDH3 are associated with congential hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.
