Background | EPCAM is a carcinoma-associated antigen and belongs to a family which includes at least 2 type I membrane proteins. The EPCAM protein has a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. EPCAM is used as a target for immunotherapy treatment of human carcinomas. EPCAM is expressed on most normal epithelial cells and gastrointestinal carcinomas and acts as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. Epithelial cell adhesion molecules (EPCAM) can act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for supplying immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. EPCAM gene mutations result in congenital tufting enteropathy. |
Description | EPCAM Human Recombinant expressed in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 267a.a. (24-265 a.a.) and having a molecular weight of 30.1kDa.EPCAM is fused to a 25a.a. His-tag at N-terminus and purified by unique purification methods. |
