Description
This antibody recognizes a glycoprotein of ~200kDa, identified as renal cell carcinoma protein, carbonic anhydrase IX / CAIX, or gp200. Its epitope resides in the carbohydrate domain of the protein. The CAIX antibody shows no significant cross-reactivity with other carbohydrate determinants, such as the Lewis blood group antigens, epithelial membrane antigen, HMFG, and AB blood group antigens. In normal kidney, CAIX is localized along the brush border of the pars convoluta and pars recta segments of the proximal tubule, as well as focally along the luminal surface of Bowman's capsule adjoining the outgoing proximal tubule. Reportedly, it is expressed by 93% of primary and 84% of metastatic renal cell carcinomas. This CAIX antibody may be useful in the investigations of carcinomas of proximal nephrogenic differentiation, especially those showing tubular differentiation.
Storage
Store the CAIX antibody at 2-8°C (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20°C or colder (without azide).
Expiration:
12 months from the date of shipment when stored properly.
