Description: EGP40 is a 40-43 kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, also identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. This antibody has been used to distinguish adenocarcinoma from pleural mesothelioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. This antibody is also useful in distinguishing serous carcinomas of the ovary from mesothelioma.
Immunogen: A human recombinant partial protein corresponding to amino acids 100-224 (extracellular domain) was used as the immunogen for the Ep-CAM antibody.
Storage: Store the Ep-CAM antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
