Manufacturer - Specificity	No cross reactivity with other proteins.
Background	Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is a transmembrane glycoprotein mediating Ca2+-independent homotypic cell–cell adhesion in epithelia. This gene encodes a carcinoma-associated antigen and is a member of a family that includes at least two type I membrane proteins. This antigen is expressed on most normal epithelial cells and gastrointestinal carcinomas and functions as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. The antigen is being used as a target for immunotherapy treatment of human carcinomas. Mutations in this gene result in congenital tufting enteropathy.
Immunogen	A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of human EPCAM, different from the related mouse sequence by fifteen amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by sixteen amino acids.
Contents	Each vial contains 4 mg Trehalose, 0.9 mg NaCl and 0.2 mg Na2HPO4.
Purification	Immunogen affinity purified.
Reconstitution	Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
Concentration	Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.
Manufacturer - Research Category	Cell Type Markers, Tags & Cell Markers, Tumor Associated
Protein Name	Epithelial cell adhesion molecule
Protein Function	May act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for providing immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. Plays a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. Up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC and cyclins A and E.
Subcellular Localization	Lateral cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction, tight junction. Colocalizes with CLDN7 at the lateral cell membrane and tight junction.
Description	Boster Bio Anti-EpCAM Antibody Picoband® catalog # PB10059. Tested in ELISA, Flow Cytometry, IF, IHC, WB applications. This antibody reacts with Human. The brand Picoband indicates this is a premium antibody that guarantees superior quality, high affinity, and strong signals with minimal background in Western blot applications. Only our best-performing antibodies are designated as Picoband, ensuring unmatched performance.
Tissue Specificity	Highly and selectively expressed by undifferentiated rather than differentiated embryonic stem cells (ESC). Levels rapidly diminish as soon as ESC's differentiate (at protein levels). Expressed in almost all epithelial cell membranes but not on mesodermal or neural cell membranes. Found on the surface of adenocarcinoma.
