Product Name :
PSCA (V71) polyclonal antibody Background :
Prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) is a 123 amino acid glycosylated protein that shares homology with the Thy-1/Ly-6 family of glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol GPI)-anchored cell surface antigens. The PSCA gene maps to chromosome 8q24.2 and transcripts are most prevalent in prostate and placenta. The gene encoding c-myc is also located on chromosome 8q and like PSCA, is overexpressed in a large number of prostate cancers. Transcripts for PSCA are also abundant in urothelial tumors, and levels of PSCA transcripts increase in confluent RT112 bladder carcinomas, suggesting that PSCA is a marker for urothelial and gastric tissue carcinogenesis. Among prostate cancer cell surface antigens, PSCA is expressed in over 80% of prostate carcinomas and correlates well to certain prostate cancer phenotypes such as prostate cancer bone metastates.

Tips:
For phospho antibody, we provide phospho peptide（0.5mg) and non-phospho peptide(0.5mg).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.Formula:
Synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml DI water for a final concentration of 10 mg/ml.The purity is >90%,tested by HPLC and MS.
Storage:
The freeze-dried powder is more stable. For short time at 2-8°C. For long term storage store at -20°C.
