Anti-Catenin- a2, clone 3F7 ZooMAb, Cat. No. ZRB1108, is a recombinant Rabbit monoclonal antibody that targets Catenin-a2 and is tested for use in Affinity Binding Assay, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), and Western Blotting.

Target description

Catenin-a2 (UniProt: P26232; also known as Alpha N-catenin, Alpha-catenin-related protein) is encoded by the CTNNA2 (also known as CAPR) gene (Gene ID: 1496) in Human. Catenins are a large family of cell-cell adhesion molecules that are involved in development and in epithelial cell polarity. They are reported to associate with both E- and N-cadherins. The association of catenins to cadherins creates a complex that is linked to the actin filament network, and which seems to be of primary importance for cadherins cell-adhesion properties. Catenin- a2 is a peripheral membrane protein that is expressed in neural tissues. It is expressed in the developing cortical plate and marginal zone of 20-week-old human fetal brain. It functions as a linker between cadherin adhesion receptors and the cytoskeleton to regulate cell-cell adhesion and differentiation in the nervous system and is required for proper regulation of cortical neuronal migration and neurite growth. It is also reported to act as negative regulator of Arp2/3 complex activity and Arp2/3-mediated actin polymerization and hence suppresses excessive actin branching which would impair neurite growth and stability. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
