Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins that preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells.  Cadherins thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types.  Cadherin14 or CDH15 is an 814 amino acid (aa) single pass type I transmembrane protein of the cadherin superfamily.  CDH15 contains an N-terminal signal peptide, a 546-aa extracellular domain (ECD) with 5 cadherin domains and 4 potential glycosylation sites, a transmembrane domain (TM), and a 188-aa highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. CDH15 is expressed in myoblasts and upregulated in myotubule-forming cells. CDH15 may control morphogenetic processes, specifically myogenesis, and provide a trigger for terminal muscle cell differentiation.  A chromosomal aberration involving CDH15 and KIRREL3 is found in a patient with severe mental retardation and dysmorphic facial features, termed Mental retardation, autosomal dominant 3 (MRD3).

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: CDH15; CDH3; CDHM; MCAD; MRD3; CDH14; cadherin14; cadherin15

 

NCBI Gene ID: 1013

 

Uniprot Entry: P55291

 

Construct Details: Full length human CDH15 gene is subcloned into the Lentiviral expression vector pLTC with an upstream CMV promoter and with or without a selection marker, which can be used for both transient and stable expression in mammalian cells.  It can be co-transfected with the LentiPAK DNA mix (SKU# LP-001) into HEK293 cells to produce high titer lentiviral particles. Multiple choices of a stable antibiotic selection marker are available.

 

Vector Type: pLTC or pLTC-IRES-Marker (lentiviral expression vector containing a heterologous CMV promoter +/- a selection marker, see the vector map above)

 

Formulation: Supplied with 10 μg of endotoxin-free plasmid DNA at 200 ng/μl in sterile TE buffer (pH8.0)

 

Gene Insert Size: 2445 (bp)

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CCAGGTTTCCGGGCCCTCAC-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
