Anti-MUC1 antibody produced in rabbit

Anti-MUC1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total MUC1 protein.

MUC1 (Mucin 1) is O-glycosylated, carbohydrate rich, transmembrane glycoprotein. It has approximately 13 members in the family. It is localized on the apical surface of mucosal epithelia in the lung, eye, breast and stomach. It is overexpressed in several epithelial cancers, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. It is a heterodimer consisting of N-terminal (MUC1-N) and C-terminal (MUC1-C) subunits. N-terminal (MUC1-N) end contains tandem repeats (VNTR) which forms the mucin component.

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human MUC1.

Immunogen Range: 1191-1240

Anti-MUC1, C-Terminal antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for immunohistochemistry and indirect immunofluorescence.

MUC1 (Mucin 1) plays a major role in the formation of epithelium lining of the gastrointestinal tract. It lubricates the gastrointestinal tract, to protect the epithelia from oesophagus to the colon. It also lubricates the epithelia of some organs such as pancreas and gall bladder. It is directly involved in several signaling pathways as a modulator that affects oncogenesis, motility and metastasis.
