Anti-FAT1 antibody is validated on mouse tissue and recommended for immunofluorescence labeling, IHC, or western blot of materials from rodent and human tissues.
Protocadherin FAT1 is a protein that is encoded by the FAT1 gene in human. This gene is an orthologue of the Drosophila fat gene. FAT is involved in establishing the planar polarity in Drosophila cells.
Like classic cadherins, protocadherin proteins contain an amino-terminal extracellular domain or ectodomain or EC domain that is followed by a transmembrane domain and a carboxyl-terminal intracellular domain. Compared to classic cadherins, the ectodomains in protocadherins are much larger.
FAT1 is highly expressed in the external limiting membrane of the retina, where the photoreceptor cells make cell junctions with the muller cells.
