Background :
HepaCAM (hepatocyte cell adhesion molecule), also known as GlialCAM, is a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein of 416 amino acids. It displays a typical structure of immunoglobulin (Ig)-like adhesion molecules including two extracellular Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic tail. It has been shown that hepaCAM forms a cis-homodimer on the cell surface, and modulates cell-matrix interaction. It is predominantly expressed in the CNS glial cells. Defects in HEPACAM gene are the cause of megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts type 2A (MLC2A). HEPACAM has also been suggested as a tumor suppressor gene.

Antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by effector lymphoid B cells into the bloodstream. Antibodies consist of two light peptide chains and two heavy peptide chains that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds to form a “Y” shaped structure. Both tips of the “Y” structure contain binding sites for a specific antigen. Antibodies are commonly used in medical research, pharmacological research, laboratory research, and health and epidemiological research. They play an important role in hot research areas such as targeted drug development, in vitro diagnostic assays, characterization of signaling pathways, detection of protein expression levels, and identification of candidate biomarkers.
