Anti-JAM3 antibody produced in rabbit

Junctional adhesion molecule 3 (JAM3) is a protein encoded by the JAM3 gene in humans. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The protein is an adhesion molecule expressed by blood and lymphatic ECs, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and circulating cells, such as monocytes, lymphocytes, and platelets.

Junctional adhesion molecule C precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Anti-JAM3 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Junctional adhesion molecule C plays a role in tight junction formation, leukocyte adhesion and transendothelial migration. It plays an important role in different metastasis capacity of lymph node. It affects β1and ERK activation in human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells (HDLEC) and promotes lymphangiogenesis and nodal metastasis. It may act as a therapeutic target for preventing and treating lymphatic metastases. It has some role in the development and function of the vascular system and the brain. The gene is essential for maintaining the integrity of the cerebrovascular endothelium as well as for normal lens development in humans.

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
