Application

Anti-MUC1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

MUC1 (mucin 1) is localized to the chromosomal locus which is the third most frequently rearranged site in non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma (NHL). Chromosomal translocation results in the activation of this gene, which is responsible for tumorigenesis in lymphomas. Due to chromosomal rearrangements, this gene is deregulated in leukemias, sarcomas, and epithelial tumors. This gene leads to the switching of SMAD3 signaling from tumor suppressive (pSmad3C/p21(WAF1)) to oncogenic pSmad3L/c-Myc. This leads to the activation of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), this protein maintains redox balance, which prevents ROS (reactive oxygen species)-mediated apoptosis. Thus, it has potential as a therapeutic target in the same.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The band 1q21 is among the most common sites affected by chromosomal translocations in lymphoid, myeloid, epithelial, and sarcomatous lesions. In non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), translocations and duplications affecting this chromosomal site are frequently, but not exclusively, seen in association with
