NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
cell-cell adhesion molecule; may play a role in smooth muscle cell migration and adhesion in response to injury [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
CDH2: Cadherins are calcium dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism. In hippocampal neurons, may regulate dendritic spine density. Interacts with CDCP1. Identified in a complex containing FGFR4, NCAM1, CDH2, PLCG1, FRS2, SRC, SHC1, GAP43 and CTTN. Interacts with PCDH8; this complex may also include TAOK2. The interaction with PCDH8 may lead to internalization through TAOK2/p38 MAPK pathway.

Product Notes
The Rat Cdh2 cdh2 (Catalog #AAA2882392) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2882392 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Cdh2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cadherin-2, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
