The Mouse Monoclonal anti-MUC2 antibody (Clone rMLP-842) (ABIN7881674) specifically detects MUC2 in IHC (p).
The antibody is reactive with Human samples.
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.
