R-Cadherin Mouse, Unlabeled, Clone: 48, BD

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 610414

Catalog No. BDB610414

Description

R-Cadherin was first isolated from chicken retina, but was subsequently shown to be present and highly conserved in a variety of tissues from several different species. A 913 amino acid polypeptide, R-Cadherin is highly homologous to Cadherin-4, but is most closely related to another family member, N-Cadherin. In experiments using chimeric L cells expressing chicken or mouse Cadherins, those cells expressing mouse or chicken R-Cadherin were able to aggregate with each other as well as with cells expressing N-Cadherin. However, there was no aggregation of R-Cadherin expressing cells, with P- or E-Cadherin expressing cells. This suggests that the roles of specific cadherins are conserved among types in the determination of heterogenous cell segregation and distribution during tissue morphogenesis and maintenance.
