| Note: |
STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
| Short Description: |
Recombinant-Human EpCAM-protein was developed from hek293. For use in research applications. |
| Conjugation: |
Biotin |
| Formulation: |
Lyophilised from 0.2 Mu m filtered PBS solution, pH7.2, 5% Trehalose. |
| Storage Instruction: |
Can be stored in working aliquots at 2°C-8°C C for one month, or at-20°C to-70°C for 1 year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. NA |
| Endotoxin: |
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). NA |
| Gene Symbol: |
EPCAM |
| Gene ID: |
4072 |
| Uniprot ID: |
EPCAM_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: |
GLN24-LYS265, ECD |
| Immunogen: |
Optimized DNA sequence encoding extracellular domain of Human Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) (GLN24-LYS265) including a C-terminal His tag was expressed in HEK293 cells. Recombinant Human EpCAM was further labeled by Biotin for detection b |
| 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. |
