Anti-PSMA (3F11) mouse monoclonal antibody

Invented at Institute of Biotechnology CAS

Info

Catalogue Number 157668
Applications ELISA IHC WB
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets glutamate carboxypeptidase II (amino acids 226-243)
Synonyms Glutamate carboxypeptidase II; GCPII; NAALADase; FOLH1; Folate Hydrolase 1; N-Acetylated Alpha-Linked Acidic Dipeptidase 1; Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen; PSMA
Reactivity Dog, Human, Mouse, Pig and Rat
Relevance GCPII reveals glutamate carboxypeptidase activity that is responsible for uptake of folate by intestine, moreover, it participates on regulation of neurotransmission via hydrolysis of the neuropeptide N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate in central nervous system. GCPII is expressed in several tissues including prostate epithelium, kidney, small intestine and nervous system. Disregulation of GCPII activity could be connected with hyperhomocysteinemia and various neuro-pathological conditions including glutamate excitotoxicity. GCPII stays as a leading biomarker of prostate cancer due to huge upregulation of its expression in tumor tissue.
Host Mouse
Immunogen human GCPII extracellular domain
