Product Details anti-EGFR Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 344-492

Specificity: This MAb recognizes a protein of 170 kDa, identified as EGFR. EGFR is type I receptor tyrosine kinase with sequence homology to erbB-1, -2, -3 -4 or HER-1, -2, -3 -4. It binds to Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), Transforming Growth Factor-a (TGF-a), Heparin-binding EGF (HB-EGF), amphiregulin, betacellulin and epiregulin. EGFR is overexpressed in tumors of breast, brain, bladder, lung, gastric, head neck, esophagus, cervix, vulva, ovary, and endometrium. It is predominantly present in squamous cell carcinomas.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Recombinant fragment of human EGFR protein (around aa 344-492) (exact sequence is proprietary)

Isotype: IgG2b kappa
