Applications
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab33168 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
| Application | Abreviews | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ICC/IF | Use a concentration of 1 - 5 µg/ml. Abcam recommends using this product with confluent cells. |
|
| WB | Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 115 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 87 kDa).Can be blocked with VE Cadherin peptide (ab27462). Abcam recommends using BSA blocking with this product. Milk blocking will give a greatly reduced signal strength in WB. |
|
| IP | Use at an assay dependent concentration. | |
| In-Cell ELISA | Use at an assay dependent concentration. PubMed: 22689949 | |
| Flow Cyt | Use at an assay dependent concentration. ab171870 - Rabbit polyclonal IgG, is suitable for use as an isotype control with this antibody. |
Target
-
FunctionCadherins 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. This cadherin may play a important role in endothelial cell biology through control of the cohesion and organization of the intercellular junctions. It associates with alpha-catenin forming a link to the cytoskeleton.
-
Tissue specificityEndothelial tissues and brain.
-
Sequence similaritiesContains 5 cadherin domains.
-
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated on tyrosine residues by KDR/VEGFR-2. Dephosphorylated by PTPRB. -
Cellular localizationCell junction. Cell membrane. Found at cell-cell boundaries and probably at cell-matrix boundaries.

Western blot - Anti-VE Cadherin antibody - Intercellular Junction Marker (ab33168)Anti-VE Cadherin antibody - Intercellular Junction Marker (ab33168) at 1 µg/ml + HUVEC Cell Lysate at 20 µg
Secondary
IRDye 680 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) at 1/10000 dilution
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 87 kDa
Observed band size: 115 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
The band we observe at 115 kDa is believed to be the glycosylated form of the protein. -
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-VE Cadherin antibody - Intercellular Junction Marker (ab33168)ab33168 stained in HUVEC cells. Cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min) at room temperature and incubated with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 1h at room temperature to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab33168 at 1µg/ml and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibodies were ab150120 (pseudo-colored red) and ab150081 (colored green) used at 1 ug/ml for 1hour at room temperature. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (colored blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM for 1hour at room temperature

Rabbit IgG isotype control (white)
Human REH B cells were fixed in paraformaldehyde and permeabilized using saponin. Primary antibody used undiluted (2µl in 100µl of cells in PBS) and incubated for 15 minutes at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was an undiluted, Alexa Fluor®488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG. -

For western blotting a HRP-conjugated mouse anti-VE Cadherin (1/3000) was used to confirm successful immunoprecipation.
