CD99 monoclonal antibody Background :
CD99 is a transmembrane protein involved in many cellular functions, including cell adhesion and migration, endocytosis and exocytosis, and intracellular protein trafficking. It is highly expressed in all leukocyte lineages, Sertoli cells, granulosa cells, and pancreatic islet cells. Due to alternative splicing, there are two isoforms of CD99 that differ at the carboxy terminus. CD99 Type I (CD99wt) is the full-length form containing 185 amino acids and CD99 Type II (CD99sh) contains 161 amino acids. Their expression is differentially regulated and they may have opposite functions in different contexts. CD99 is expressed in many types of tumors and has been used for differential diagnosis of conventional Ewing sarcoma. It has been actively pursued as a therapeutic target. On the other hand, CD99 may also play a tumor suppressor role in other tumors, such as Hodgkin’s lymphomas, osteosarcomas, and pancreatic tumors. Product :

• 
• 
  Immunohistochemical analysis of CD99 staining in human ewing's sarcoma formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
