Species ReactivityMouse
ImmunogenRecombinant Human Cell surface glycoprotein MUC18 protein (50-646AA)
ConjugateNon-conjugated
IsotypeIgG2a
ClonalityMonoclonal
ApplicationsELISA, WB, IF, FC
BufferPBS, 50% glycerol, 0.05% Proclin 300, 0.05%BSA
StorageUpon receipt, store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze.

Function

Plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Its expression may allow melanoma cells to interact with cellular elements of the vascular system, thereby enhancing hematogeneous tumor spread. Could be an adhesion molecule active in neural crest cells during embryonic development.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Detected in endothelial cells in vascular tissue throughout the body. May appear at the surface of neural crest cells during their embryonic migration. Appears to be limited to vascular smooth muscle in normal adult tissues. Associated with tumor progression and the development of metastasis in human malignant melanoma. Expressed most strongly on metastatic lesions and advanced primary tumors and is only rarely detected in benign melanocytic nevi and thin primary melanomas with a low probability of metastasis

Protein Biology

Function

Plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Its expression may allow melanoma cells to interact with cellular elements of the vascular system, thereby enhancing hematogeneous tumor spread. Could be an adhesion molecule active in neural crest cells during embryonic development. Acts as a surface receptor that triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of FYN and PTK2/FAK1, and a transient increase in the intracellular calcium concentration
