Melanoma gp100 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6940583

Product Details anti-Melanoma gp100 Antibody

Target: Melanoma gp100 (PMEL) (Premelanosome Protein (PMEL))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Melanoma gp100 antibody is un-conjugated

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

Specificity: By immunohistochemistry, it specifically recognizes a protein in melanocytes and melanomas. This MAb reacts with junctional and blue nevus cells and variably with fetal and neonatal melanocytes. Intradermal nevi, normal adult melanocytes, and non-melanocytic cells are negative. It does not stain tumor cells of epithelial, lymphoid, glial, or mesenchymal origin. Metastatic amelanotic melanoma can often be confused with a variety of poorly differentiated carcinomas, large cell lymphomas, and sarcomas using H E stains alone. It is also difficult to differentiate melanoma from spindle cell carcinomas and various types of mesenchymal neoplasms. This MAb stains fetal and neonatal melanocytes, junctional and blue nevus cells, and malignant melanoma. This MAb also stains Angiomyolipoma (PEComa).

No Cross-Reactivity: Dog (Canine), Rat (Rattus)

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Extract of pigmented melanoma metastases from lymph nodes

Clone: HMB45

Isotype: IgG1 kappa
