Description: This antibody cocktail recognizes three melanoma-specific proteins, which include MART-1, Tyrosinase and gp100. MART-1 is a newly identified melanocyte differentiation antigen recognized by autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Tyrosinase is one of the targets for cytotoxic T-cell recognition in melanoma patients. Function of gp100 is not known but it is reported to be a useful marker for melanocytes and melanomas. This cocktail of three markers is designed for extremely sensitive labeling of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded melanomas and other tumors showing melanocytic differentiation.
Immunogen: Recombinant MART-1 protein (M2-7C10 & M2-9E3), recombinant tyrosinase protein (T311) and extract of pigmented melanoma metastases from lymph nodes (HMB45) were used as the immunogens for this Melanoma Cell Marker antibody cocktail.
Storage: Store the Melanoma Cell Marker antibody cocktail at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
