General description

Glutamate carboxypeptidase 2 (UniProt: Q04609; also known as EC:3.4.17.21, Cell growth-inhibiting gene 27 protein, Folate hydrolase 1, Folylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase, FGCP, Glutamate carboxypeptidase II, GCPII, Membrane glutamate carboxypeptidase, mGCP, N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase I, NAALADase I, Prostate-specific membrane antigen, PSM, PSMA, Pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase) is encoded by the FOLH1 (also known as FOLH, NAALADI, PSM, PSMA, GIG27) gene (Gene ID: 2346) in human. PSMA is a single-pass type II membrane protein that has both folate hydrolase and N-acetylated-alpha-linked-acidic dipeptidase activities. It exhibits a preference for tri-alpha-glutamate peptides. Its expression pattern is restricted mainly to the healthy prostate secretory-acinar epithelium and the plasma membrane of epithelial prostate carcinoma. In the brain, it modulates excitatory neurotransmission through the hydrolysis of the neuropeptide, N-aceylaspartylglutamate (NAAG) and release of glutamate. Clone 3F11 is shown to be highly specific for PSMA and does not exhibit any cross-reactivity with unrelated proteins. It binds to a linear epitope (aa 226-243) within the extracellular domain and is reported to be suitable for the detection of PSMA orthologs from some other species when denatured form of PSMA is used.

Specificity

Clone 3F11 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that detects Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). It targets an epitope within 18 amino acids from the extracellular domain.

Immunogen

Full-length recombinant human Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA).
