Target/Specificity | Mouse anti-Human CD227 antibody, clone VU-4H5 recognizes human Mucin 1, also known as CD227, Cancer antigen 15-3, Episialin or Krebs von den Lungen-6. CD227 is a 1255 amino acid single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein. Mucins are a family of high molecular weight, heavily glycosylated proteins (glycoconjugates) produced by many epithelial tissues in vertebrates. CD227 is a breast cancer associated mucin encoded by the Muc-1 gene. CD227 is expressed on most secretory epithelium, including mammary gland and some hematopoietic cells. This protein is overexpressed abundantly in >90% breast carcinomas and metastases.Mouse anti-Human CD227 antibody, clone VU-4H5 reacts with the APDTR peptide sequence (VTSAPDTRPAPGSTAPPAHG) of human CD227. |
