PCDH7 Protein, Human (sf9, His)

PCDH7 Protein, an integral membrane protein, belongs to the PCDHδ1 subfamily and it is highly expressed in brain and heart. PCDH7 is a synaptically localized, GluN1-interacting protein that regulates synapse morphology and function. PCDH7 is the first trans-membrane protein that inhibits homotypic cell-in-cell (hoCIC) formation to promote tumor growth^[1][2]. PCDH7 Protein, Human (sf9, His) is the recombinant human-derived PCDH7 protein, expressed by Sf9 insect cells , with N-His labeled tag. The total length of PCDH7 Protein, Human (sf9, His) is 851 a.a., with molecular weight of ~94 kDa.

PCDH7 as the first trans-membrane protein that inhibits hoCIC formation to promote tumor growth. PCDH7 overexpression reduces synaptic NMDA receptor currents. PCDH7 can regulate dendritic spine morphology and synaptic function. PCDH7 is highly expressed in the brain and has been linked to CNS disorders, including epilepsy. PCDH7 increases the level of pMLC2 leading to enhanced actomyosin at the intercellular region and compromised hoCIC formation^[2].
