Cdh17 ELISA Kit (Mouse) (OKBB01368)

Description of target: Cadherin-17 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH17 gene. It is mapped to 4; 4 A1. This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily, genes encoding calcium-dependent, membrane-associated glycoproteins. The encoded protein is cadherin-like, consisting of an extracellular region, containing 7 cadherin domains, and a transmembrane region but lacking the conserved cytoplasmic domain. The protein is a component of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreatic ducts, acting as an intestinal proton-dependent peptide transporter in the first step in oral absorption of many medically important peptide-based drugs. The protein may also play a role in the morphological organization of liver and intestine.;Species reactivity: Mouse;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
