ANTIBODIES

Contributor Information
- Institute Netherlands Cancer Institute
Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Melanoma Associated Antigen 100 (Gp100) [Beteb]
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Molecular weight of the target: 70 kDa
- Application: IHC
- Strain: Balb/c
- Description: Gp100 plays a central role in the biogenesis of melanosomes. Involved in the maturation of melanosomes from stage I to II. The transition from stage I melanosomes to stage II melanosomes involves an elongation of the vesicle, and the appearance within of distinct fibrillar structures. Release of the soluble form, ME20-S, could protect tumour cells from antibody mediated immunity.
