Related Product Information for anti-MCAM antibody
MCAM (also termed CD146 or MUC18) is a cell-adhesion molecule belonging to the immunoglobulin gene superfamily. It mediates cell-cell interaction through heterophilic Mel-CAM/ligand adhesion. MCAM has been shown to expressed widely in normal and neoplastic human tissues. MUC18 expression is increased during prostate cancer initiation (high grade PIN) and progression to carcinoma, and in metastatic cell lines and metastatic carcinoma.

Uniprot Description

MCAM: 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. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Cell adhesion; Membrane protein, integral

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11q23.3

Cellular Component: extracellular space; focal adhesion; plasma membrane; integral to membrane; nucleus; external side of plasma membrane

Biological Process: anatomical structure morphogenesis; glomerular filtration; angiogenesis; cell adhesion; positive regulation of cell migration

Product Notes

The MCAM mcam (Catalog #AAA246449) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Mouse Monoclonal [clone P1H12] (IgG1) to Human MCAM / CD146 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's MCAM / CD146 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC - Paraffin; IHC - Frozen), Western Blot (WB), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS). Flo, IHC-Fr (1 - 10 ug/ml), IHC-P (20 ug/ml), IP, WB (1 - 5 ug/ml) Usage: This P1H12 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of HUVEC cell line. This can be used at 0.25 ul per test. A test is defined as the amount (ug) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 ul. Cel.. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MCAM mcam for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MCAM / CD146, Monoclonal Antibody" 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.
