EDAR is a type I transmembrane protein which is a member of the TNF Receptor Superfamily (TNFRSF). The extracellular domain contains 14 cysteine residues, six of which approximate the TNFRSF cysteine-rich region, the cytoplasmic domain contains a region with homology to the death domains found in other TNFRSF members. Mouse EDAR is a 488 amino acid (aa) protein with a predicted 30 aa signal, a 159 aa extracellular domain, a 22 aa transmembrane domain, and a 277 aa cytoplasmic domain. The human and mouse EDAR homologs share 91% identity. Within the TNFRSF, EDAR shares the highest homologies with XEDAR and TNFRSF19/TROY. EDA-A1 is the EDAR ligand. EDA and EDAR have been associated with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED). HED is characterized by abnormalities in hair, teeth and eccrine sweat gland morphogenesis. HED was initially found to associate with two gene loci, tabby and downless. Tabby was later identified as the gene for EDA and downless as the autosomal EDAR gene. EDA has two splice variants, EDA-A1 and EDA-A2 which differ by only two amino acids. Despite this minor difference, the EDA isoforms display strong receptor specificity. EDA-A1 only binds to EDAR, whereas EDA-A2 binds to XEDAR, an X-linked TNFRSF member with high homology to EDAR. Mutations in EDA, EDAR and XEDAR have been associated with HED.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse EDAR Antibody
Detection of EDAR by Immunohistochemistry
EDAR and LEF1 expression in Meis2 cKO mice.(A) Three examples of 10 μm FFPE sections stained with EDAR antibody showing affected expression of EDAR in Meis2 cKO mice. Arrows indicate EDAR-positive sites which are observed less frequently in the mutant snout. Scale bar: 500 μm. (B) Two representative images of normally developed escaper whisker follicles (WFs) in the mutants by LEF1 staining. LEF1 expression is similar in just forming placodes (top) and invaginated (bottom). Additionally, LEF1 expression shows a decline in the DC regions compared to peri-DC. Scale bar: 30 μm. (C) Three representative micrographs of LEF1-stained 10 μm FFPE snout sections showing normal expression of LEF1 in the dermis but the decreased number of LEF1+ placodes in the epithelium of the mutant snout. Scale bar: 500 μm. (D) Quantification of Lef1+ placode count and Lef1 fluorescence intensities in placodes, DCs, or interfollicular upper dermis. Data are presented as mean ± sem, ***p=0.0002. (E) In situ hybridization HCR-FISH using probes for Axin2 and Wnt10b in control snout at embryonic day 12.5 (E12.5) showing placodal expression of Wnt10b (green) and Axin2 (arrows, red) as well as widespread expression of Axin2 in the dermis. Scale bar: 60 μm. Image collected and cropped by CiteAb from the following open publication (https://elifesciences.org/articles/100854), licensed under a CC-BY license.
