Immunocytochemistry Protocadherin-8 antibody in MCF-7 Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC). View Larger

Protocadherin‑8 in MCF‑7 Human Cell Line. Protocadherin-8 was detected in immersion fixed MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line using Human Protocadherin-8 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB5434) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell surfaces and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Background: Protocadherin-8

Protocadherin 8 (PCDH-8) is a 160 kDa group F member of the protocadherin family of molecules.  It is expressed in breast epithelium, the synaptic membranes of neurons, and presumably forms Ca++-dependent homophilic complexes.  In breast, it is believed to contribute to a stable epithelial architecture, while in brain, it impacts LTP.  Mature human PCDH-8 is a type I transmembrane protein that is 1041 amino acids (aa) in length.  It contains a 720aa extracellular domain (ECD) (aa 30-749) plus a 300 aa cytoplasmic region.  There are six cadherin domains in the ECD (aa 30-723).  Multiple splice variants exist.  Two show deletions of aa 134-607 and 781-877, respectively, while a third shows a six aa substitution for aa 365-527.  Over aa 30-689, human PCDH-8 shares 93% aa identity with mouse PCDH-8.
