Recombinant Cadherin 2 Antibody / CDH2 / N-Cadherin

SKU: orb2635366

Description

Recognizes a protein of ~140kDa, identified as N-Cadherin (NCAD), also known as CD325, Cadherin 2 and CDH2. CDH2 is a member of the Cadherin superfamily, and consists of five extracellular repeats, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. CDH2 deficient mice die at day 10 of gestation and embryos display major heart defects and malformed neural tubes and somites. Consistent with this, the protein has been implicated in several aspects of cardiac development including the precardiac mesoderm, establishment of left-right symmetry and cardiac looping morphogenesis. Furthermore, CDH2 is normally involved in inducing cell cycle arrest and its expression is frequently deregulated in cancer cells. Studies have linked N-cadherin to cancer metastasis by showing the aggressive tumor cells had preferentially turned on N-cadherin as opposed to E- or P-cadherin.
