Invitrogen™ MUC1 Recombinant Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (HMFG1 (1.10.F3))

Mouse Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  Invitrogen™ MA551834

Product Code. 30088856

Description

This antibody binds the MUC1, a tumor associated antigen expressed on many breast cancer cells. This antibody does not show reactivity towards fibroblasts, lymphoblastoid cells, and a large number of epithelial cell lines of non-breast origin. This antibody recognizes the 'PDTR' epitope of mucin.

MUC1 (Mucin 1, Episialin, MAM-6, CA 15-3, PEM and EMA) is a large cell surface mucin glycoprotein expressed by most glandular and ductal epithelial cells and some hematopoietic cell lineages. MUC1 is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a large mucin-like extracellular domain that matures through several intermediate forms generated by proteolysis, and sequential addition and processing of numerous O-linked glycans that are heavily sialylated. MUC1 is highly polymorphic and each allele encodes a product that contains a different number of repeats (between 30 and 90) leading to large differences in molecular weight of the protein. MUC1 is expressed on most secretory epithelium, including mammary gland and some hematopoietic cells, and is expressed abundantly in >90% breast carcinomas and metastases. Transgenic MUC1 has been shown to associate with all four cebB receptors and localize with erbB1 (EGFR) in lactating glands. The MUC1 gene contains seven exons and produces several different alternatively spliced variants. Overexpression, aberrant intracellular localization, and changes in glycosylation of the MUC1 protein have been associated with carcinomas. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms of the MUC1 gene have been reported, but the full-length nature of only some has been determined. Transgenic MUC-1 has been shown to associate with all four cebB receptors and localize with erbB1 (EGFR) in lactating glands.
