Anti-Alkaline Phosphatase (Placental) / PLAP (Germ Cell Tumor Marker), Monoclonal Antibody
Product Name | Anti-Alkaline Phosphatase (Placental) / PLAP (Germ Cell Tumor Marker), Monoclonal Antibody |
---|---|
Description | PLAP is a tissue specific, trophoblast-derived, 70kDa, glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored, dimeric, Zn2+ metallo glycoprotein that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphomonoesters into an inorganic phosphate and an alcohol. It is present in the placenta and serum of pregnant women and in high frequency in gynecological and testicular cancers and in lower frequency in other tumors. The three tissue-specific AP_Ûªs in humans, PLAP, germ cell AP (GCAP) and intestinal AP, are 90-98% homologous. Non-tissue specific AP is found in kidney, liver and bone. This monoclonal antibody binds equally well to all common allelic variants (S, F, FS and I) of PLAP as to AP from normal human testis. This monoclonal antibody can be used both as coating as well as tracer antibody in the same ELISA to detect PLAP in serum of S, F, FS and I phenotypes. |
