Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human Ep-CAM/TROP-1/CD326-C-His protein was developed from hek293 cells and has a target region of C-His. For use in research applications. |
Formulation: |
Lyophilized from a 0.22 Mu m filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Contact us for customized product form or formulation. |
Immunoreactivity: |
Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. When cells are added to EpCAM-His coated plates (1.25 Mu g/mL, 100 Mu L/well) , approximately >30% will adhere specifically after |

Immunogen: |
Recombinant Human Ep-CAM/TROP-1/CD326 Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Gln24-Lys265) of human EpCAM/TROP-1 (Accession #NP_002345.2) fused with a 6×His tag at the C-terminus. |
Tissue Specificity | Highly and selectively expressed by undifferentiated rather than differentiated embryonic stem cells (ESC). Levels rapidly diminish as soon as ESC's differentiate (at protein levels). Expressed in almost all epithelial cell membranes but not on mesodermal or neural cell membranes. Found on the surface of adenocarcinoma. |
Post Translational Modifications | Hyperglycosylated in carcinoma tissue as compared with autologous normal epithelia. Glycosylation at Asn-198 is crucial for protein stability. |
Function | May act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for providing immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. Plays a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. Up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC and cyclins A and E. |
