Clone Number: VU-4H5
Immunogen: 60-mer MUC1 VNTR synthetic peptide conjugated to BSA
Concentration: 100 ug/ml
Storage buffer: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide
Additional info: VU-4H5 reacts with the protein core of MUC1, an apical cell side epithelial marker which is upregulated or switched on in the majority of carcinomas. The dominant epitope of VU-4H5 is PDTR, located in the VNTR domain of MUC1. In tissue sections, VU-4H5 also displays prominent staining of the cytoplasm.
