Stability Test
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
-
Shipping
In general, recombinant proteins are supplied as lyophilized powder and shipped at ambient temperature. For bulk packages, the proteins are provided as frozen liquid and shipped with blue ice, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Protein Description
PCDHAC2 (protocadherin alpha 2) is a member of the protocadherin family, which is known for its role in cell-cell adhesion and neural development. The study of PCDHAC2 is significant due to its potential involvement in various neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia, where disruption in cell adhesion mechanisms may contribute to altered neural connectivity. Research has shown that protocadherins are crucial for the specification and maintenance of neuronal connections, thus highlighting the importance of PCDHAC2 in establishing the neural circuitry during development. Furthermore, PCDHAC2 is expressed in specific neuronal populations, suggesting it may play a role in defining synaptic specificity and plasticity. The recombinant expression of PCDHAC2 protein allows for detailed functional studies and understanding of its adhesion properties, which can unveil insights into its mechanisms of action and interaction with other synaptic proteins. This knowledge not only enhances our comprehension of neural development but also aids in identifying therapeutic targets for neurological diseases linked to cell adhesion deficiencies. Consequently, the ongoing research on the recombinant PCDHAC2 protein serves as a promising avenue for elucidating the complex biological roles of protocadherins in the nervous system and their implications in neuropsychiatric conditions.
