MUC2 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6940118

Product Details anti-MUC2 Antibody

Target: MUC2 (Mucin 2, Oligomeric Mucus/gel-Forming (MUC2))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This MUC2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: Recognizes a single glycoprotein of 520 kDa, identified as mucin 2 (MUC2). This MAb shows no cross-reaction with human milk fat globule membranes, MUC1, or MUC3. Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins, which constitute the major component of the mucus layer that protects the gastric epithelium.MUC2 is specifically expressed in goblet cells of the small intestine in about 65 % of colonic carcinomas and about 40 % of gastric carcinomas. MUC2 is rarely expressed outside of the GI tract with the exceptions of mucinous carcinoma of breast and clear cell-type carcinomas of the ovary.

No Cross-Reactivity: Rat (Rattus)

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Recombinant fragment covering tandem repeats of human MUC2 protein (exact sequence is proprietary)

Clone: MLP-842

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details
