DETAILS

Form: Protein G Purified
Gene: EPCAM
Host: Mouse
Rrid: AB_3068418
Type: Primary Antibody
Clone: M039
Buffer: PBS + 1 mg/ml BSA, 0.05% NaN3 and 50% glycerol
Target: EpCAM (Extracellular region)
Isotype: IgG1
Storage: Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
Shipping: Blue Ice
Synonyms: GA733-2, M1S2, M4S1, MIC18, TACSTD1, TROP1, Epitelial glycoprotein, EGP, KS 1/4 antigen, KSA, EGP314, CD326, EpCAM
Clonality: Mouse Monoclonal
Immunogen: Clone (M039) was generated from the extracellular region of human EpCAM.
Expiration: After date of receipt, stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.
Specificity: Clone M039 mouse monoclonal antibody detects a 35-45 kDa* protein on SDS-PAGE "Native" immunoblots of human A431, H1915, and MCF7 carcinomas. This antibody weakly detects denatured EpCAM. The antibody works for native western blot, immunoprecipitation, ELISA capture, and immunocytochemistry.

Target Description: Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM) is a signal type I transmembrane glycoprotein that has an extracellular domain with one thyroglobulin type-1 domain and a short cytoplasmic domain. EpCAM is found on the surface of adenocarcinoma, but not on mesodermal or neural cell membranes. The EpCAM molecule has been shown to function as a homophilic Ca2+ independent adhesion molecule. It may act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium. Defects in EpCAM cause hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer type 8 (HNPCC8) and diarrhea type 5 (DIAR5). EpCAM plays a role in embryonic stem cell proliferation and differentiation; it up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC, and Cyclin A & Cyclin E. It is highly and selectively expressed by undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and in many types of epithelial carcinomas.
