MUC6 antibody (CF®488A)

Catalog No. ABIN6186823

Product Details anti-MUC6 Antibody (CF®488A)

Target: MUC6 (Mucin 6, Oligomeric Mucus/gel-Forming (MUC6))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This MUC6 antibody is conjugated to CF®488A

Application: Immunofluorescence (IF), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Purpose: Mouse Monoclonal anti-Mucin 6 (MUC6) (MUC6/916), CF488A Conjugate

Characteristics: The MUC6 gastric mucin is a secreted glycoprotein that plays an essential role in epithelial cyto-protection from acid, proteases, pathogenic microorganisms, and mechanical trauma in the gastrointestinal tract. Mucin 6 expression is highest in the stomach and gall bladder, with lower expression in the terminal ileum and right colon. In gastric cancer, Mucin 6 has an altered expression. In normal stomach, Mucin 6 is associated with Lewis type 2, Mucin 6 is also expressed in gastric metaplasia, duodenum and pancreas. Mucin 6 is a secretory mucin, located in the deeper mucosal folds of human gall bladder, and its expression is altered with increasing degrees of inflammation. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF® dyes and other labels. CF® dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
