Description

Cadherin-13 proteins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecules that exhibit a preference for homogeneous interactions, promote connections between adjacent cells, and may play a role in cell type sorting. Cadherin-13 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived Cadherin-13 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

Cadherin-13, a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein, stands out for its unique features in comparison to classical cadherins. Unlike the typical cadherin EC1 domain strand-swapping mechanism for homodimerization, Cadherin-13 achieves this through a distinct homophilic adhesive interface, connecting two elongated EC1-EC2 domains near their Ca2+-binding sites. This arrangement forms a tetrahedral, X-like shape, showcasing a different mode of homodimerization. This protein is implicated in potentially acting as a negative regulator of neural cell growth, and its ability to preferentially interact with itself in a homophilic manner suggests a role in contributing to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types within neural tissues.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to inhibit the adhesion of HUVEC human umbilical vein endothelial cells. When 5 x 104 cells/well are added to Recombinant Mouse Cadherin-13 coated plates, cell adhesion is inhibited in a dose dependent manner after 2.5 hours at 37 °C. The ED50 for this effect is 4.025 μg/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is 248.447 units/mg.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
