Description

General description

NG2 / chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 is expressed on glial cell populations, but not on normal hepatopoietic cells. It is an integral membrane chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan expressed by human malignant melanoma cells, where it plays role in stabilizing cell-substratum interactions during early events of melanoma cell spreading on endothelial basement membranes, and supports signaling pathways important for tumor invasion and growth. NG2 also serves as an AML blast tumor marker associated with poor prognosis.

Specificity

The mouse monoclonal antibody 7.1 recognizes an extracellular epitope of NG2, the melanoma-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 of Mw approximately 220-300 kDa.

Immunogen

Human bone marrow stromal cells infected with SV-40

Physical form

Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 15 mM sodium azide

Preparation Note

Purified antibody is conjugated with R-phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. Unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Storage and Stability

Store at 2-8°C. Protect from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Other Notes

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
