Anti-CDH9 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein cadherin 9. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 789 amino acid residues and a mass of 88.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. It is notably expressed in the small intestine, placenta, lung, duodenum, and cerebral cortex. CDH9 is known to be involved with cell adhesion. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. The CDH9 marker can be used to identify Ventral Excitatory Neurons.* Synonyms for this target antigen include T1-cadherin. CDH9 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of CDH9 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
