TAG-72 / CA72.4 (Tumor-Associated Glycoprotein) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

• Gene Name:

  [TAG-72]

• NCBI Gene ID:

  182875

• Reactivity:

  Human

• Storage Conditions:

  Antibody with azide - store at 2 to 8 °C. Antibody without azide - store at -20 to -80 °C. Antibody is stable for 24 months. Non-hazardous. No MSDS required.

• Specificity:

  Recognizes an oncofetal antigen of 220kDa, identified as a tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) with properties of a mucin. The majority of human adenocarcinomas including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, ovarian, endometrial, mammary, and non-small cell lung cancer display some cell populations that are positive for TAG72. About 60% of carcinoma patients express TAG72 in their sera. TAG72 is reportedly useful in distinguishing pulmonary adenocarcinomas from pleural mesotheliomas.

• Short Name:

  [TAG-72 / CA72.4 (Tumor-Associated Glycoprotein)]

• CAS Number:
