MLANA antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6939402

Product Details anti-MLANA Antibody

Target: MLANA (Melan A (MLANA))

Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This MLANA antibody is un-conjugated

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

Specificity: This antibody recognizes a protein doublet of 20-22 kDa, identified as MART-1 (Melanoma Antigen Recognized by T cells 1) or Melan-A. MART-1 is a newly identified melanocyte differentiation antigen recognized by autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Seven other melanoma associated antigens recognized by autologous cytotoxic T cells include MAGE-1, MAGE-3, tyrosinase, gp100, gp75, BAGE-1, and GAGE-1. Subcellular fractionation shows that MART-1 is present in melanosomes and endoplasmic reticulum. This antibody labels melanomas and other tumors showing melanocytic differentiation. It is also a useful positive-marker for angiomyolipomas. It does not stain tumor cells of epithelial, lymphoid, glial, or mesenchymal origin.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Recombinant human MLANA protein

Isotype: IgG
