Scientific Data Images for Human E-Cadherin Antibody
Detection of Human E‑Cadherin by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of A549 human lung carcinoma cell line and HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human E-Cadherin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1838) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for E-Cadherin at approximately 110 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.E-Cadherin in Human Colon.
E-Cadherin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human colon using Mouse Anti-Human E-Cadherin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1838) at 2 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Mouse HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS002) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific labeling was localized to the plasma membrane of epithelial cells.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of A549 human lung carcinoma cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for E‑Cadherin at approximately 166 kDa (as indicated) using 5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human E‑Cadherin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB1838) . This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.Applications for Human E-Cadherin Antibody

Background: E-Cadherin
Epithelial (E) - Cadherin (ECAD), also known as cell-CAM120/80 in the human, uvomorulin in the mouse, Arc-1 in the dog, andL-CAM in the chicken, is a member of the Cadherin family of cell adhesion molecules. Cadherins are calcium-dependent transmembrane proteins which bind to one another in a homophilic manner. On their cytoplasmic side, they associate with the three catenins, alpha, beta, and gamma (plakoglobin). This association links the cadherin protein to the cytoskeleton. Without association with the catenins, the cadherins are non-adhesive. Cadherins play a role in development, specifically in tissue formation. They may also help to maintain tissue architecture in the adult. E-Cadherin may also play a role in tumor development, as loss of E-Cadherin has been associated with tumor invasiveness. E-Cadherin is a classical cadherin molecule. Classical cadherins consist of a large extracellular domain which contains DXD and DXNDN repeats responsible for mediating calcium-dependent adhesion, a single-pass transmembrane domain, and a short carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic domain responsible for interacting with the catenins. E-Cadherin contains five extracellular calcium-binding domains of approximately 110 amino acids each.
