Scientific Data

Western Blot

View Larger

Detection of Human HepaCAM by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of human brain (motor cortex) tissue and human brain (hippocampus) tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human HepaCAM Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4108) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for HepaCAM at approximately 45-70 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Simple Western

View Larger

Detection of Human HepaCAM by Simple Western^TM. Simple Western lane view shows lysates of human brain (motor cortex) tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for HepaCAM at approximately 63 kDa (as indicated) using 10 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human HepaCAM Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4108). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Background: HepaCAM

Hepatocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule (HepaCAM) is a 416 amino acid type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the immunoglobin superfamily. HepaCAM forms cis-homodimers on the cell surface and may be involved in modulating cell-matrix interactions, likely by promoting cell spreading and motility. Human HepaCAM runs as a 48-72 kDa protein depending on glycosylation. It contains a 206 amino acid extracellular domain and a 152 amino acid cytoplasmic domain. Over the extracellular region used as immunogen (aa 34-242), human HepaCAM is 99% and 98% identical to mouse and canine HepaCAM proteins, respectively.
