Gene Information

human ... CDH17(1015)

General description

Cadherin-17 is a liver-intestine cadherin protein encoded by the CDH17 gene in humans and belongs to unique member of cadherin superfamily. CDH17 is a non-classical cadherin having seven cadherin domains and a transmembrane domain but lacking the conserved cytoplasmic domain of classical cadherins. Cadherins are cellular adhesion molecules that are crucial for intracellular adhesion. These are considered as potential tumor suppressor genes and any alterations in them may lead to invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. The gene CDH17 is mapped to human chromosome 8q22.1 and contains 18 exons.

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

The protein encoded by the gene CDH17 (Cadherin-17), also referred to as LI-cadherin, functions in cell adhesion without being dependent on cytoplasmic components, such as catenins or the actin cytoskeleton. Lower expression of this protein due to single nucleotide polymorphisms has been associated with tumor progression and lymph node metastasis of human colorectal carcinoma. It is found to regulate the signaling function of α2β1 integrin in cell adhesion and proliferation in liver metastatic cancer cells.

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.
