• Gene Name:

  [MUC-1]

• Reactivity:

  Human

• Storage Conditions:

  Store product at 4 degree C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20 degree C. Aliquots are stable at -20 degree C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Note: Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.

• Specificity:

  Binds with high efficiency with a region of GVTSAPDTRPAPGSTAPPAHGVTSA synthetic peptide spanning the one repeat of VNTR extracellular portion of MUC1 molecule. Reacts with VNTR5 and VNTR20 recombinant unglycosylated fragments of MUC1 protein and underglycosylated MUC1 prepared from tumor fluids or as a result of chemical treatment of human milk MUC1. Does not recognize natural MUC1 protein isolated from human milk by affinity purification on carbohydrate epitope specific monoclonals and belongs to Monoclonal Cluster 1-4 according to ISOMB TD-4 classification. Does not cross-react with egg white avidin.
