This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-60072. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
Human membralin is unique and does not share significant sequence homology with other human genes, only membralins of other species. The membralin gene contains 11 exons which encode at least two spliced variants in human cancer. The long form of membralin (membralin-1) comprises all 11 exons, encoding a protein of 620-amino acids long and the short form of membralin (membralin-3) contains all exons except for exon 10, encoding a protein of 408 amino acids. Expression of different membralin isoforms depends on tissue type. The long form, membralin-1, is expressed in ovarian and colorectal carcinomas but not in breast or pancreatic carcinomas, which express only the short splice form, membralin-3. Recent studies suggest that membralin is a novel tumor-associated marker in ovarian serous carcinomas.
