Target Details
- Target: APC
- Target molecular weight: 320 kDa
- Target background: The adenomatous polyposis coli tumor suppressor gene is mutated (often deletion of the C-terminal portion of APC) in the inherited disease, familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), and over 80% of colorectal cancers. Clone c-APC 28.9 is useful for the detection of APC expression and detection of mutations. This antibody has been used routinely for Western blotting on colon cell line HCT116 extract which expresses full-length APC.
