Protein Name & Synonyms:
p63
Applications:
ELISA (dilution: , 1/1000), Western Blotting
Immunogen Sequence:
C-NFDMDARRNKQQRIKEEGE
Species Reactivity:
Human, Mouse
This product detects a band of approximately 75kDa in mouse lung and human tumour cell line K562 (protein degredation is as expected).
This product specifically recognizes an epitope within the C-terminal (CT) region of tumour protein p63, otherwise known as tumour protein p73-like (p73L), a widely expressed nuclear protein and homologue of tumour suppressor p53, which acts as a sequence-specific DNA binding transcriptional activator/repressor.
p63, vital for the development of the prostate and selectively expressed by normal prostate basal cells, has been shown to be a promising complementary basal cell specific marker to High Molecular Weight-Cytokeratin (HMW-CK), for the differential diagnosis of benign prostatic lesions and prostatic carcinoma.
This product is reported as suitable for use in immunocytochemistry.
Store at -20 °C only.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
If stored in this manner, this product is stable for 18 months after receipt.
Supplied as:
Purified IgG - liquid
Formulation:
Phosphate buffered saline
