Anti-MUC1 / EMA / CD227 (Epithelial Marker), Monoclonal Antibody
Product Name | Anti-MUC1 / EMA / CD227 (Epithelial Marker), Monoclonal Antibody |
---|---|
Description | This monoclonal antibody recognizes full-length MUC1 in a glycosylation-independent manner and can bind to the fully glycosylated protein. The dominant epitope of this monoclonal antibody is APDTR in the VNTR region. It reacts with the core peptide of the MUC1 protein, which is a member of a family of mucin glycoproteins that are characterized by high carbohydrate content, O-linked oligosaccharides, high molecular weight (>200kDa) and an amino acid composition rich in serine, threonine, proline and glycine. The core protein contains a domain of 20 amino-acid tandem repeats that functions as multiple epitopes for the monoclonal antibody. Incomplete glycosylation of some tumor-associated mucins may lead to variable unmasking of the multiple peptide epitopes leading to the observed differences in staining intensity between normal and malignant tissues. This monoclonal antibody reacts with both normal and malignant epithelia of various tissues including breast and colon. |
