General description

Plakoglobin is a desmosomal protein that regulates developmental signalling in vertebrates. Tyrosine phosphorylation of plakoglobin has been linked to adenocarcinomas . Plakoglobin may function as a tumor suppressor in ovarian and breast cancers .

Specificity

The antibody recognizes the plakoglobin (catenin-γ) molecule (85 kDa and possibly a slightly lower band) by immunoblotting. It does not cross-react with β-catenin. The antibody reacts with plakoglobin in bovines, humans and dogs, but does not react with β catenin.

Immunogen

recombinant chicken plakoglobin.

Application

Monoclonal anti-plakoglobin (catenin γ) antibody is suitable for use in immunocytochemistry (using MDCK cells), immunoprecipitation, and in immunoblotting . The antibody may also be used for immunohistochemistry (frozen sections), microarray, western blot (1:500, using cultured MDBK cells) and indirect immunofluorescence (1:1000, using cultured MDBK cells).

The effect of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on cadherin-mediated adhesion of human carcinoma cells was studied. HGF/SF induced scattering of colonic adenocarcinoma HT29 and gastric adenocarcinomas MKN7 and MKN74 cells. Likewise, EGF induced scattering

The gene encoding human plakoglobin was mapped to chromosome 17q12-q22. An intragenic restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to localize the plakoglobin gene distal to locus KRT10 and proximal to the marker D17S858. The plakoglobin gene colocalizes with the polymorphic

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (AC) is a hereditary cardiac condition associated with ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden death. The disease is most often caused by mutations in the desmosomal gene for plakophilin-2 (PKP2), which is expressed in both myocardial and epidermal
