Catalog Number: 21-5078
Size: 100 µg
Isotype: Mouse IgG1
Background:
Ep-CAM is a 40 kD glycoprotein and can be detected at the basolateral membrane of the majority of epithelial tissues, where it is intriCately linked with the cadherin-Catenin complex and hence the fundamental WNT pathway responsible for intracellular signalling and polarity. This antigen functions as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. Of particular interest, Ep-CAM appears to be overexpressed by the majority of Human epithelial carcinomas, including colorectal, breast, prostate, head and neck, and hepatic carcinomas. The antigen is being used as a target for immunotherapy of Human carcinomas. Formation of Ep-CAM-mediated adhesions has a negative regulatory effect on adhesions mediated by classic cadherins, which may have strong effects on the differentiation and growth of epithelial cells. Ep-CAM overexpression was suggested to be associated with enhanced epithelial proliferation.

Clone: VU1D9

Isotype: Mouse IgG1

Source: VU1D9 is a Mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody derived by fusion of Mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a Mouse immunized with an NCI-H69 small cell lung carcinoma cell line.

Reactivity: human

Specificity: VU1D9 reacts with the first EGF repeat in the extracellular domain of Ep-CAM. The epitope is sensitive for reducing agents. VU1D9 detects Ep-CAM in most simple, pseudostRatified and transitional epithelia and in the majority of Human carcinomas.

Form: Each vial contains 100ul purified monoclonal antibody in PBS containing 0.09% sodium azide.

Applications: Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (frozen), Immunohistochemistry (paraffin), Western blotting

Storage: Store at 4C, or in small aliquots at -20C.
