Gene Information

General description

Monoclonal Anti-N-CAM (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM), the best characterized CAM, exists in adult brain. It belongs to the family of sialoglycoproteins, which arise from alternative splicing of mRNA transcribed from a single gene. Immunocytochemical data indicate that in the adult, N-CAM is expressed mainly in cells of the nervous system. There are indications that N-CAM may also be expressed by non-neural cells in the adult, as it has been found in studies of various embryonic developmental stages.
Mouse monoclonal clone NCAM-0B11 anti-Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule antibody localizes the high molecular weight isoform of N-CAM (neural cell adhesion molecule) in human and several other mammalian species. The antibody shows a strong reaction to N-CAM A/N-CAM 180, however it also recognizes N-CAM B/N-CAM 140. In an immunoblot, the product reacts with polysialated N-CAM in embryonic material. Breakdown products of N-CAM may be stained; they appear as bands lower than 100 kD on the immunoblot.
