Function

Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins (PubMed:11976333). They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells (PubMed:11976333). Promotes organization of radial actin fiber structure and cellular response to contractile forces, via its interaction with AMOTL2 which facilitates anchoring of radial actin fibers to CDH1 junction complexes at the cell membrane (By similarity). Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7 (By similarity). E-Cad/CTF2 promotes non-amyloidogenic degradation of Abeta precursors. Has a strong inhibitory effect on APP C99 and C83 production (By similarity). (Microbial infection) Does not function as a receptor for L.monocytogenes internalin A (InlA); mutating a single surface-exposed residue confers receptor activity to this protein and promotes uptake of the bacteria.

ab232217 is the carrier-free version of Anti-E Cadherin antibody [EPR16845-108] ab181296.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

E-Cadherin sometimes called CDH1 or Cadherin-1 is a protein that plays a role in cell-to-cell adhesion. This transmembrane protein has a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. E-Cadherin is mainly expressed in epithelial tissues of various organs including the skin and gut. Its adhesive function is made possible by its extracellular domain that facilitates homophilic binding between cells contributing to the maintenance of tissue architecture and cellular integrity.

Biological function summary

E-Cadherin participates in establishing and maintaining adherens junctions which are vital for tissue structure. E-Cadherin operates as a core component of the cadherin-catenin complex which links the protein to the actin cytoskeleton. Through this linkage E-Cadherin plays an important role in signaling pathways that influence cellular growth and differentiation. The protein's ability to mediate intercellular connections also regulates cellular motility and supports basic aspects of cell behavior in epithelial tissues.

Pathways

E-Cadherin influences both the Wnt signaling pathway and the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Within the Wnt signaling pathway E-Cadherin partners with β-catenin a significant player in transcription regulation and cell signaling. Disruption in E-Cadherin's adhesive functionality can lead to increased β-catenin availability affecting downstream transcriptional control. In the EMT process E-Cadherin loss characterizes an important step in which cells gain migratory and invasive properties typically seen during metastasis in cancer progression.

Associated diseases and disorders

E-Cadherin's role is prominent in cancer particularly in the context of gastric and breast cancers. Mutations or altered expression of E-Cadherin lead to diminished cell adhesion promoting tumorigenesis and metastatic spread. In gastric cancer for instance mutated E-Cadherin often associates with loss of epithelial function facilitating cancer cell dissemination. Additionally its loss or dysfunction may correlate with proteins such as β-catenin further impacting cancer progression and pathology.
