General description

An anti-adhesive transmembrane protein, PODXL (podocalyxin like), belongs to the sialomucin protein family. It is associated with cancer development and aggressiveness. It is expressed in various cells including epithelial cells of kidney glomeruli, vascular endothelia cells, hematopoietic stem cells and platelets.

Immunogen

Podocalyxin-like protein 1 precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-PODXL antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PODXL (podocalyxin like) acts as an anti-adhesion molecule in kidney open filtration pathways. It interacts with the actin-binding protein ezrin in cancer. Using ezrin and the bridging protein NHERF (Na+/H+) exchanger regulatory factor, it connects to the cytoskeleton to regulate cytoskeletal-related functions in tumor progression. In human, PODXL stimulates the cell adherence capacity to immobilized ligands and vascular endothelial cells in presence of integrins.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Podocalyxin is an anti-adhesive transmembrane sialomucin that has been implicated in the development of more aggressive forms of breast and prostate cancer. The mechanism through which podocalyxin increases cancer aggressiveness remains poorly understood but may involve the interaction of podocalyxin
