Anti-CDH16 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein cadherin 16. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 829 amino acid residues and a mass of 89.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. Up to 4 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to have kidney specific expression. CDH16 is known to be involved with cell adhesion. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include cadherin 16, KSP-cadherin, kidney-specific cadherin, and KSP-cadherin. CDH16 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish and chimpanzee species. Over 50 citations in the literature describe the use of CDH16 antibodies in research. Immunohistochemistry is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunofluorescence are also common applications.
