Function
Cadherins are calcium dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. -
Tissue specificity
Mainly expressed in brain. Found in certain nerve cell lines, such as retinoblasts, glioma cells and neuroblasts. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 5 cadherin domains. -
Cellular localization
Cell membrane. - Information by UniProt

All lanes : Anti-Cadherin 8 antibody (ab97268) at 1 µg/ml
Lane 1 : SHSY-5Y (Human neuroblastoma cell line) Whole Cell Lysate
Lane 2 : WERI (Human Retinoblastoma) Whole Cell Lysate
Lane 3 : U-87 MG (Human glioblastoma astrocytoma) Whole Cell Lysate

Secondary
All lanes : Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) preadsorbed (ab97080) at 1/5000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 88 kDa
Observed band size: 100 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Additional bands at: 52 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
Exposure time: 1 minute
Cadherin 8 contains a number of potential glycosylation sites (SwissProt) which may explain its migration at a higher molecular weight than predicted. -
ICC/IF image of ab97268 stained U87MG cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab97268, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was ab96899, DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
