Source

Mouse myeloma cell line, NS0-derived mouse TCAM-1 protein
Ala20-Gly483 & Glu22-Gly483

Purity

>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.

Endotoxin Level

<0.10 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

N-terminal Sequence Analysis

Ala20 & Glu22

Predicted Molecular Mass

52 kDa

SDS-PAGE

70-80 kDa, reducing conditions

Activity

Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of MLTC-1 mouse Leydig tumor cells.
When 5 x 104 cells per well are added to TCAM-1 coated plates (5 μg/mL, 100 μL/well), approximately 65%-85% will adhere after 45 minutes at 37 °C.

Background: TCAM-1

Mouse TCAM-1 (Testicular cell adhesion molecule-1) is a 59 kDa (predicted) type I transmembrane protein that is a member of the intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) family belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily (1). It is synthesized from a 548 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains an 18 aa signal sequence, a 465 aa extracellular region, a 25 aa transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic tail of 40 aa. The extracellular region contains five Ig domains and six potential N-linked glycosylation sites (1). Mouse TCAM-1 is 89% identical to rat TCAM-1. Expression of TCAM-1 is detected in the embryo on day 17 and in adult testis, and correlates with the presence of pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids in mouse testis development (1).
