Recombinant human CD146/MCAM protein
MCAM, also known as cell surface glycoprotein MUC18, is an integral membrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is associated with various carcinomas such as tumor progression, metastasis and may be involved in embryonic neural development. This protein also plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Recombinant human MCAM protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
