Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Mouse
Immunogen:: Recombinant human MUC18 protein. Cellular Localization: Cell surface
Clone:: OJ79c
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2. Labeled with Allophycocyanin (APC).
Extra Details:: The human Mel-CAM gene maps to chromosome 11q23 and encodes a trans-membrane glycoprotein, also designated MCAM, MUC 18 or CD146, that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and functions as a Ca2+-independent cell adhesion molecule. Mel-CAM expression is restricted to advanced primary and metastatic melanomas and to cell lines of the neuroectodermal lineage, but not normal melanocytes. Mel-CAM is found on 80% of advanced primary human melanomas and correlates well with development of metastatic disease. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, Flow Cytometry, FLISA, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
