Background

This antibody is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. Anti-ABCB5 Antibody is a ATP-Binding Cassette protein. ABCB5 is a novel member of the human P-glycoprotein family. It functions as a determinant of membrane potential and regulator of cell fusion in physiologic skin progenitor cells. Cell fusion is thought to contribute to tissue differentiation. ABCB5 is predominantly expressed in melanoma cells and is a novel molecular marker for a distinct subset of chemoresistant stem cell phenotype-expressing tumor cells among human epidermal melanocytes. ABCB5 is a rhodamine efflux transporter. This antibody product is intended to be used to confirm cellular localization and expression level of ABCB5. ABCB5 antibody is ideal for Cancer and Signal Transduction research.

Polyclonal

Applications

ELISA, IHC, WB

Field of Research

Cancer, Channels, Metabolism, Plasma Membrane, Signal Transduction

Purification

This product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody is specific for human ABCB5 protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest partial cross-reactivity with ABCB5 from monkey (85% homology), rat (68% homology) and mouse (62% homology) sources. Cross-reactivity with ABCB5 from other sources has not been determined.
