MUC7 Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a small salivary mucin, which is thought to play a role in facilitating the clearance of bacteria in the oral cavity and to aid in mastication, speech, and swallowing. The central domain of this glycoprotein contains tandem repeats, each composed of 23 amino acids. This antimicrobial protein has antibacterial and antifungal activity. The most common allele contains 6 repeats, and some alleles may be associated with susceptibility to asthma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants with different 5' UTR, but encoding the same protein, have been found for this gene.

The MUC7 Polyclonal Antibody is a highly specific and sensitive antibody that has been developed for the detection of MUC7 protein in various biological samples. This antibody has been produced using a polyclonal approach, which ensures that it recognizes multiple epitopes of the target protein, resulting in a high degree of specificity and sensitivity.

The MUC7 Polyclonal Antibody has been extensively validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA. It has been shown to detect MUC7 protein in a wide range of biological samples, including saliva, lung tissue, and breast cancer cells.

This antibody is supplied as a purified IgG fraction, which has been affinity-purified from rabbit serum. It is provided in a convenient format, with a concentration of 1 mg/ml, and can be used at a dilution of 1:1000 for Western blotting and 1:200 for immunohistochemistry.

Overall, the MUC7 Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable and effective tool for the detection of MUC7 protein in various biological samples. Its high specificity and sensitivity make it an ideal choice for researchers studying the role of MUC7 in various physiological and pathological processes.
