Melanoma gp100 antibody (CF®640R)

Catalog No. ABIN6190072

Product Details anti-Melanoma gp100 Antibody (CF®640R)

Target: Melanoma gp100 (PMEL) (Premelanosome Protein (PMEL))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Melanoma gp100 antibody is conjugated to CF®640R

Application: Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Purpose: Mouse Monoclonal anti-Pmel17 / gp100 / SILV (PMEL/783), CF640R Conjugate

Characteristics: Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL's) recognize melanoma-associated antigens, which belong to three main groups. These groups include tumor-associated testis-specific antigens, melanocyte differentiation antigens and mutated or aberrantly expressed antigens, which are routinely used as markers to identify melanomas based on their binding to specific monoclonal antibodies. gp100, also designated ME20-M, ME20-S and PMEL 17, is classified as a melanocyte differentiation antigen and is expressed at low levels in normal cell lines and tissues, but is upregulated in melanocytes. gp100 is a highly glycosylated protein. It is also the product of proteolytic cleavage, which results in a secreted protein. 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.

Immunogen: Recombinant human SILV protein

Clone: PMEL-783

Application Details

Application Notes: Immunohistology (formalin)

• Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10 mM citrate buffer,  pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes
• Immunofluorescence 0.5-1 μg/mL
• Flow Cytometry 0.5-1 μg/million cells/0.1 mL
• Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined by user
