Recombinant Human Cadherin-17/CDH17 Protein (His Tag)

Cadherin-17 is a single-pass type I membrane protein that belongs to the cadherin superfamily. Cadherin-17 consists of one extracellular region containing seven cadherin domains and one transmembrane region but it lacks the conserved cytoplasmic domain. Cadherin-17 is expressed in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreatic duct. Cadherins are calcium dependent cell adhesion proteins and preferentially interact with each other in a homophilic manner in connecting cells. Cadherin-17 may have a role in the morphological organization of liver and intestine and involved in intestinal peptide transport.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
