Related Product Information for MCAM recombinant protein

MCAM, also known as cell surface glycoprotein MUC18, is an integral membrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is associated with various carcinomas such as tumor progression, metastasis and may be involved in embryonic neural development. This protein also plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Recombinant human MCAM protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in insect cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Uniprot Description

Plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Its expression may allow melanoma cells to interact with cellular elements of the vascular system, thereby enhancing hematogeneous tumor spread. Could be an adhesion molecule active in neural crest cells during embryonic development. Acts as surface receptor that triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of FYN and PTK2/FAK1, and a transient increase in the intracellular calcium concentration.
