  • Clone: PS2GE2
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Molecular weight of the target: 6.5 kDa
  • Application: FACS ; IHC ; IF ; IP ; WB
  • Description: pS2 is a cysteine-rich, 6.5kDa protein found in both oestrogen-dependent (breast tumours) and oestrogen-independent tissues (normal stomach mucosa). About 60% of breast carcinomas are positive for pS2. Staining is cytoplasmic, often with localisation to the Golgi apparatus. pS2 is primarily expressed in oestrogen receptor-positive breast tumours.
  • Immunogen: A synthetic peptide of 28 amino acid residues from the C-terminus of human pS2 protein
  • Isotype: IgG1 kappa
  • Research area: Cancer; Cell biology; Genetics

  • For Research Use Only
