2610206D03Rik,AU016810,AW553441,CAR,MCAR,MCVADR

Catalog Number P50019-M08H
Organism Species Mouse
Host Human Cells
Synonyms 2610206D03Rik,AU016810,AW553441,CAR,MCAR,MCVADR
Molecular Weight The secreted recombinant mouse CXADR consists of 229 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 25.7 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, rmCXADR migrates as an approximately 35 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N Leu 20
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the mouse CXADR (NP_001020363.1) extracellular domain (Met 1-Gly 237) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-activity Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of mouse neutrophils. When 5 x 10E4 cells/well are added to CXADR-coated plates (4 μg/ml and 100 μl/well), approximately 20%-40% will adhere specifically after 60 minutes at 37℃.
Research Area Signaling |Signal Transduction |Cytoskeleton / ECM |Cell Adhesion |Tight Junctions
Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose and mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background CXADR (coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor), also known as CAR, is a type I  transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the CTX family of the Ig superfamily, and is essential for normal cardiac development in the mouse. Proposed as a homophilic cell adhesion molecule, CXADR is a component of the epithelial apical junction complex that is essential for the tight junction integrity, and probably involved in transepithelial migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Mature mouse CXADR structrually comprises a 218 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with a V-type (D1) and a C2-type (D2) Ig-like domain, a 21 aa transmembrane segment and a 107 aa intracellular domain, among which,D1 is thought to be responsible for homodimer formation in trans within tight junctions. The ECD of mouse CXADR shares 97%, 90% sequence identity with the corresponding regions of rat, human CXADR.
