Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ CDH12 is a type II classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily of integral membrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion. Mature cadherin proteins are composed of a large N-terminal extracellular domain, a single membrane-spanning domain, and a small, highly conserved C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. Type II (atypical) cadherins are defined based on their lack of a HAV cell adhesion recognition sequence specific to type I cadherins. This particular cadherin appears to be expressed specifically in the brain and its temporal pattern of expression would be consistent with a role during a critical period of neuronal development, perhaps specifically during synaptogenesis._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ CDH12 (NP_004052, 693-726)_x000D_ This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the C-terminal region of human CDH12._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide.
