Estrogen Receptor alpha antibody (AA 129-312)

Catalog No. ABIN6939347

Product Details anti-Estrogen Receptor alpha Antibody

Target: Estrogen Receptor alpha (ESR1) (Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1))

Binding Specificity: AA 129-312

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Estrogen Receptor alpha antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: This monoclonal antibody is specific to estrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) and shows minimal cross-reaction with other members of the family. ER is an important regulator of growth and differentiation in the mammary gland. Presence of ER in breast tumors indicates an increased likelihood of response to anti-estrogen (e.g. tamoxifen) therapy. It strongly stains nuclei of epithelial cells in breast carcinomas.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Recombinant human ESR1 protein fragment (around aa129-312) (exact sequence is proprietary)

Clone: ESR1-3559

Isotype: IgG2b kappa
