Principle of the Assay: This kit was based on sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. Anti-E-Cadherin polyclonal antibody was pre-coated onto 96-well plates. And the biotin conjugated anti-E-Cadherin polyclonal antibody was used as detection antibodies. The standards, test samples and biotin conjugated detection antibody were added to the wells subsequently, and wash with wash buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with wash buffer. TMB substrates were used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the E-Cadherin amount of sample captured in plate. Read the O.D. absorbance at 450nm in a microplate reader, and then the concentration of E-Cadherin can be calculated!!Background/Introduction: Cadherin-1 also known as CAM 120/80 or epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin) or uvomorulin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH1 gene. E-cadherin is a Ca2+-dependent epithelial cell-cell adhesion molecule. Downregulation of Ecadherin expression often correlates with strong invasive potential and poor prognosis of Mouse carcinomas. It has 16 exons spanning approximately 100 kb of genomic DNA. The gene structure is similar to that of other cadherins. Ecadherin plays a central part in the process of epithelial morphogenesis. Expression of this protein is downregulated during the acquisition of metastatic potential at late stages of epithelial tumour progression.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein that is important in spermatogenesis, embryo implantation, neural network formation, and tumor progression. The encoded protein is also a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
BSG: Plays pivotal roles in spermatogenesis, embryo implantation, neural network formation and tumor progression. Stimulates adjacent fibroblasts to produce matrix metalloproteinases (MMPS). May target monocarboxylate transporters SLC16A1, SLC16A3 and SLC16A8 to plasma membranes of retinal pigment epithelium and neural retina. Seems to be a receptor for oligomannosidic glycans. In vitro, promotes outgrowth of astrocytic processes. Enriched on the surface of tumor cells. Up-regulated in gliomas. Its expression levels correlate with malignant potential of the tumor. Forms homooligomers in a cis-dependent manner on the plasma membrane. Forms a complex with MMP1 at the tumor cell surface. Interacts with SLC16A1 and SLC1A3; probably a BSG dimer is associated with a monocarboxylate transporter dimer. Interacts with ATP1B2, MAG and L1CAM. Interacts with AJAP1. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human BSG bsg (Catalog #AAA494767) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA494767 ELISA Kit recognizes Human BSG. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Emmprin, 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
