Description
Tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) is an oncofetal antigen with properties of a mucin. About 60% of carcinoma patients express TAG-72 in their sera.
Host Species: Mouse
Clone: B72.3
Isotype: IgG1/κ
Species Reactivity: Human, Cow, Dog, Hamster and Rat. Others not known.
Epitope: Mucin-carried-sialylated-Tn epitope
Immunogen: Membrane-enriched fraction of a human breast carcinoma liver metastasis
Molecular Weight: >1000kDa
Positive Control: Breast or lung CA
Cellular Localization: Cell surface and cytoplasmic. The majority of human adenocarcinomas including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, ovarian, endometrial, mammary, and non-small cell lung cancer display some cell populations that are positive for Ab-1 staining. Weak or no reactivity has been observed with most cell types of normal adult tissue excepting the secretory endometrium. Ab-1 is reportedly useful in distinguishing pulmonary adenocarcinomas (B72.3+) from pleural mesotheliomas (B72.3-).
Recommended for:
- Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/paraffin)
