Human Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM) is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein mediating Ca2+-independent homotypic cell–cell adhesion in epithelial cells. The recombinant EpCAM dimer protein (CSP-26323-01) is a cis-homodimer (cis-dimer) and contains an EpCAM extracellular domain (UniProt# P16422, amino acids Gln24 – Lys265) fused with a proprietary cis-dimer motif followed by a His tag at the C-terminus. This dimeric protein is expressed in HEK293T cells. The recombinant human EpCAM dimer protein is bioactive and can bind EpCAM-specific antibodies. This EpCAM dimer can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

Human Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM) is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein mediating Ca2+-independent homotypic cell–cell adhesion in epithelial cells. EpCAM is also known as Cluster of Differentiation 326 (CD326). EpCAM contains an extracellular domain with epidermal growth factor (EGF) and thyroglobulin repeat-like domains sometimes referred to collectively as “EpEX” followed by a single transmembrane domain, and a short intracellular domain sometimes referred to as “EpICD”. High-resolution X-ray crystallography shows that the extracellular part of human EpCAM (EpEX) naturally assembles into a cis-homodimer. EpCAM is highly overexpressed in the vast majority of human carcinomas, including colorectal, breast, gastric, prostate, and lung cancers. Due to it being upregulated in many carcinomas and being exclusively expressed in epithelial cells and epithelial-derived neoplasms EpCAM is a diagnostic marker for several cancers. EpCAM also appears to play a role in tumorigenesis and metastasis of carcinomas, making it an emerging target of cancer therapeutics.
