Short Description : | Mouse monoclonal antibody anti-AFP is suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry research applications. |
Clonality : | Monoclonal |
Clone ID : | C3 |
Conjugation: | Unconjugated |
Isotype: | IgG2a/Kappa |
Formulation: | Tris-HCI buffer containing stabilizing protein (BSA) and <0.1% ProClin |
Purification: | Affinity purified |
Dilution Range: | 1:100-200 |
Storage Instruction: | Store at 2‐8°C for up to 24 months. Predilute: Ready to use, no reconstitution necessary. Concentrate: Use dilution range and appropriate lab‐standardized diluent. Stability after dilution: 7 days at 24°C, 3 months at 2‐8°C, 6months at ‐20°C. |
Gene Symbol: | AFP |
Gene ID: | 174 |
Uniprot ID: | FETA_HUMAN |
Specificity: | Positive control: Fetal liver or hepatocellular carcinoma |
Immunogen: | Alpha fetoprotein (AFP) purified from serum of a hepatoma patient |
Tissue Specificity | Plasma. Synthesized by the fetal liver and yolk sac. |
Post Translational Modifications | Independent studies suggest heterogeneity of the N-terminal sequence of the mature protein and of the cleavage site of the signal sequence. Sulfated. |
Function | Binds copper, nickel, and fatty acids as well as, and bilirubin less well than, serum albumin. Only a small percentage (less than 2%) of the human AFP shows estrogen-binding properties. |
