Monoclonal antibody capable of differentiating between cellular and plasma fibronectin, in healthy cells or tumours. Background and Research Application Fibronectin is a widely expressed extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is exists in two forms, a soluble plasma form and a less soluble cellular form. Fibronectin is involved in cell adhesion, maintenance of cell shape and migration processes including embryogenesis, wound healing, blood coagulation, host defence, and metastasis. Cellular fibronectin is often found in the stroma of malignant tumours. Fn-3 can distinguish between human cellular and plasma fibronectin, thus making it possible to analyse the origin and levels of different types of fibronectin in normal human tissues and their related tumours. |
Host | Mouse |

Notes |
Production Details Purified using multi-step affinity chromatography with protein A. Storage Conditions Store at -20 degrees frozen. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Points of Interest The antigenic site recognized by FN-3 is lost after limited proteolysis of cellular fibronectin with alpha-chymotrypsin but not trypsin. Concentration 1mg/ml as standard |
