Anti-NCAM1 Antibody, FITC-Labeled
This anti-NCAM1 antibody is a purified recombinant antibody, which is labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). This antibody has been tested by flow cytometry for specific binding to human NCAM1 on the surface of NCAM1 CHO Recombinant Cell Line (BPS Bioscience #78352).
≥90%
Aqueous buffer solution.
8 mM Phosphate, pH 7.4, 110 mM NaCl, 2.2 mM KCl, 0.09% Sodium Azide, 0.2% BSA, and up to 20% glycerol. May contain a protein stabilizer.
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a derivative of fluorescein and has excitation and emission spectrum peak wavelengths of approximately 495 nm and 519 nm, causing it to fluoresce green.
NCAM1 (Neural cell adhesion molecule 1), also known as CD56 (Cluster of Differentiation 56), is a cell surface glycoprotein expressed typically in NK (Natural Killer) cells. Its level correlates with the cytotoxicity potential of the NK cells. Deficiencies in CD56+ immune cells have been associated with specific infections and autoimmune diseases. NCAM1 expression is altered in hematological malignancies, such as multiple myeloma and leukemia, and solid tumor cells from various tissue types. Studies of NCAM1 function and expression patterns will continue to broaden our knowledge and support possible applications in cancer therapy.
