Recombinant EpCAM antibody (Extracellular Domain)

Catalog No. ABIN6939996

Product Details anti-EpCAM Antibody

Target: EpCAM (EPCAM) (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EPCAM))

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 100-224, Extracellular Domain

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This EpCAM antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: Epitope of this MAb is mapped between aa 202-212 of EGP40, which is a 40-43 kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, also identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. Antibody to Ep-CAM has been used to distinguish adenocarcinoma from pleural mesothelioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. This antibody is also useful in distinguishing serous carcinomas of the ovary from mesothelioma.

Immunogen: Recombinant human EpCAM fragment from extracellular domain (around aa100-224) (exact sequence is proprietary)

Clone: EGP40-2041R

Isotype: IgG
