General description
CADM2 (cell adhesion molecule 2) is a member of the CADM family, which in turn belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. All the members of this family are composed of three extracellular Ig-like loops, a transmembrane domain and an intracellular region. This gene is localized to human chromosome 3p12.1, and is alternatively spliced to two isoforms- CADM2a and CADM2b.

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
CADM2 (cell adhesion molecule 2) is significantly donw-regulated in HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma), and this is linked with poor recurrence-free survival (RFS). Its expression in HCC is linked with differentiation, serum a-fetoprotein, vascular invasion and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). CADM2 functions as a tumor suppressor, and abnormal methylation leading to its inactivation is linked with human renal cell carcinoma tumor progression and human prostate cancer. It functions as a guidance molecule for post-crossing commissural axons, and is critical for the formation and plasticity of synapse. Inactivation of this gene results in abnormal axon-axon interaction, leading to deregulated pathfinding of sensory neurons. A new splicing variant of CADM2 is a pathogenesis factor for psoriasis.
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:
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.
