Cadherin-8 Protein, Rat (HEK293)
Cadherin-8, a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein, participates in homophilic interactions, potentially aiding the sorting of diverse cell types. Its ability for preferential homophilic interaction underscores its role in mediating cell-cell adhesions and implies involvement in cellular organization and coordination. Cadherin-8 Protein, Rat (HEK293) is the recombinant rat-derived Cadherin-8 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.
- Species: Rat
- Source: HEK293
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Description
Cadherin-8, a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein, participates in homophilic interactions, potentially aiding the sorting of diverse cell types. Its ability for preferential homophilic interaction underscores its role in mediating cell-cell adhesions and implies involvement in cellular organization and coordination. Cadherin-8 Protein, Rat (HEK293) is the recombinant rat-derived Cadherin-8 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.
Background
Cadherin-8, a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein, engages in homophilic interactions with itself in connecting cells. This characteristic underscores the potential contribution of cadherin-8, along with other cadherins, to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. The ability to preferentially interact in a homophilic manner highlights its role in mediating cell-cell adhesions and suggests its involvement in cellular organization and coordination.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
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).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
