Applications: | WB, IHC-P |
Species Reactivity: | Human |
Isotype: | Rabbit Ig |
Purification: | Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody |
Description: | MAGEC1 is a member of the melanoma antigen gene (MAGE) family. The proteins of this family are tumor-specific antigens that can be recognized by autologous cytolytic T lymphocytes. This protein contains a large number of unique short repetitive sequences in front of the MAGE-homologous sequence, thus is about 800 residues longer than the other MAGE proteins. This gene is expressed in a significant proportion of tumors of various histological types, whereas it is silent in normal tissues, except testis. The function of this gene is unknown. |
Further Information: | This MAGEC1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 849-880 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human MAGEC1. |
Synonym: | Melanoma-associated antigen C1, Cancer/testis antigen 71, CT71, MAGE-C1 antigen, MAGEC1 |
