Overview
Anti-N-Cadherin-ATTO Fluor-594 Antibody is an antibody targeting Cadherin 2, Neural cadherin, CDH2, NCAD, CDHN, CD325, Calcium-dependent adhesion protein neuronal Polyclonal raised in Rabbit (ATTO-594. Maximum absorption 601 nm; Maximum fluorescence 627 nm. The fluorescence is excited most efficiently in the 580 - 615 nm range. This label belongs to the class of Rhodamine dyes and can be used with fluorescent equipment typically optimized to detect Texas Red and Alexa-594.). This antibody is commonly used in IF, IHC to detect, localize, or compare expression of the target across samples.

- Immunogen/epitope region: Intracellular.
- Homology note: Rat, human - identical (informative for cross-species interpretation).
- Species reactivity (as provided): Human, Rat, Mouse.
- Lot quality control (as provided): Western blot analysis (unlabeled antibody, #ANR-082), and Immunohistochemical staining (labeled antibody)..
- Peptide confirmation: Confirmed by amino acid analysis and mass spectrometry.
- Blocking peptide: Available for antigen preadsorption control where appropriate.
- Conjugate/format: ATTO-594. Maximum absorption 601 nm; Maximum fluorescence 627 nm. The fluorescence is excited most efficiently in the 580 - 615 nm range. This label belongs to the class of Rhodamine dyes and can be used with fluorescent equipment typically optimized to detect Texas Red and Alexa-594. (may affect detection channel and background).
These attributes help researchers interpret whether signal reflects the intended target in a given assay and sample context.
Biological background
Cadherins are transmembrane proteins responsible for cell adhesion. Cell adhesion is a crucial feature for the sustainability and maintenance of normal tissue function and three dimensional structure. Cadherins share an extracellular domain consisting of multiple repeats of cadherin-specific motif and are calcium dependent homotypic cell-to-cell adhesion molecules.
Research relevance and current trends
- Profiling immune-marker expression across cell subsets with single-cell or flow-based readouts.
- Connecting receptor/ligand levels to activation state and cytokine programs.
- Applying genetic perturbation or orthogonal assays to support specificity and interpretation.
Common research applications
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): examine spatial distribution in tissue and relate signal to cell-type composition.
- Immunofluorescence/ICC: assess subcellular localization and co-localization with markers in cells or sections.
Interpretation typically benefits from comparing matched sample sets (e.g., treated vs control, WT vs KO/KD) and using orthogonal readouts where feasible.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Isoforms and post-translational modifications can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility across samples.
- Cross-species signal may depend on epitope conservation; consult the provided homology note when selecting models.
- Permeabilization, fixation, and antigen retrieval can change accessibility of intracellular vs extracellular epitopes.
- Conceptual control: antigen preadsorption (blocking peptide) can help assess signal dependence on the immunogen region.
- Provided control suggestions: Negative control: BLP-NR082.
- Application notes: see product-specific dilution/usage notes and control concepts provided in the dataset.
