Description
MCAM produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 547 amino acids (24-559 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 61.0kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 70-100kDa). MCAM is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Introduction
Cell surface glycoprotein MUC18 (MCAM), is an integral membrane glycoprotein which is part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. MCAM is related with a variety of carcinomas such as tumor progression, metastasis and is also implicated in embryonic neural development. In Addition, MCAM takes part in cell adhesion, as well as in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at the intercellular junctions in vascular tissue.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
MCAM protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
