Rat E-Cadherin/CDH1/Cadherin-1 ELISA Kit PicoKine®, Carrier-free

Cadherin-1, also known as CAM 120/80 or epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin) or uvomorulin, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH1 gene. E-cadherin is a Ca (2+)-dependent epithelial cell-cell adhesion molecule. Downregulation of E-cadherin expression often correlates with strong invasive potential and poor prognosis of human carcinomas. The gene spans a region of approximately 100 kb, and its location on chromosome 16q22.1. It contains 16 exons and a 65-kb-long intron 2. E-cadherin gene mutations may contribute to the development of diffusely growing gastric carcinomas. It plays a central part in the process of epithelial morphogenesis and acts as a strong invasion suppressor in experimental tumor cell systems. The standard product used in this kit is recombinant gene expression with the molecular mass of 120KDa.

Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells. Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7 (By similarity). .

Cell junction. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Endosome . Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network . Colocalizes with DLGAP5 at sites of cell-cell contact in intestinal epithelial cells. Anchored to actin microfilaments through association with alpha-, beta- and gamma-catenin. Sequential proteolysis induced by apoptosis or calcium influx, results in translocation from sites of cell-cell contact to the cytoplasm. Colocalizes with RAB11A endosomes during its transport from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane (By similarity). .
