Description: Alkaline phosphatase, placental type is a membrane-bound glycosylated dimeric enzyme, also referred to as the heat-stable form, that is expressed primarily in the placenta, although it is closely related to the intestinal form of the enzyme as well as to the placental-like form.
PLAP is a tumor marker, especially in seminoma and ovarian cancer. PLAP is reliable only in non-smokers, as smoking interferes with measurement of PLAP, since serum concentrations of PLAP are increased up to 10-fold in smokers and its measurement is therefore of little value in this group. [Wiki]
Immunogen: A peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human placental alkaline phosphatase was used as the immunogen for the recombinant PLAP antibody.
Storage: Store the recombinant PLAP antibody at -20 °C.
