Recombinant Rat NCAM1/CD56 Protein (His Tag)

NCAM1, also known as CD56, is a neural adhesion protein (NCAM) which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. NCAM is involved in neural development and in plasticity in the adult brain. UCHL1 is a novel interaction partner of both NCAM isoforms that regulates their ubiquitination and intracellular trafficking. NCAM1 is a cell adhesion molecule involved in neuron-neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation, outgrowth of neurites, etc. NCAM1 has also been shown to be involved in the expansion of T cells and dendritic cells which play an important role in immune surveillance.

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.
