CD144 (VE-Cadherin)-FITC, human，130-123-932，美天旎

Clone REA199 recognizes CD144 (VE-Cadherin), a 120 KDa type II cadherin. Cadherins are cell adhesion molecules and mediate Ca²⁺ dependent homophilic interactions. CD144 contains five extracellular cadherin (EC) domains and like other cadherins can interact directly via its C-terminus with cytoplasmic proteins such as β-catenin, plaktoglobin, and p120. Plaktoglobin und β-catenin bind to α-catenin, which in turn interacts with several actin-binding proteins, α-actinin, ajuba, zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1). Further indirect interactions of CD144 with partners such as SHP-2, VEGFR-2, Csk, and PAR-3, 6 allows CD144 to not only regulate the stability and strength of cell adhesion but also to serve functions such as sensing of shear forces, anti-proliferative, and anti-apoptotic effects.

Additional information: Clone REA199 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.
