Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody recognizes human, rabbit and hamster extracellular domain of N-cadherin. It does not cross react with this protein in mouse, rat cow and pig. N-cadherin is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein. |
Alternative Name | CD325; Cadherin-2; CDw325; Neural cadherin; n-cadherin; ncadherin |
UniProt | P19022 |
Immunogen | This antibody was raised by immunizing mice with an extracellular domain of the recombinant human N-cadherin. |
Application Notes | 8C11 antibody inhibits cells' motility, as it blocks extracellular domain of N-cadherin which is responsible for this function (Kim et al., 2000). This antibody has also been widely used in the detection and analysis of N-cadherin. For instance, it was utilized to identify this protein in A549 cells via immunofluorescence (Shintani et al., 2011). Another group used successfully 8C11 to analyze the levels of N-cadherin expression via Western blot (Chen et al., 2015). Finally, this antibody was used to label N- cadherin in tumor tissues of a metastasis model via immunohistochemistry (Li et al., 2019). |
