    Product Description

    MART1 is a type III membrane protein encoded by MLANA in humans.1,2 It is expressed in melanocytes and localized to melanosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum, and in the trans-Golgi network. It is also expressed in retinal pigment epithelium and melanoma cells.3 MART1 antigenic peptides are expressed in an MHC class I-restricted fashion in tumor cells and recognized by cytotoxic T cells at tumor sites in patients with melanoma.4,5 Cayman's MART1 (N-Term) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (Clone RM333) can be used for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot (WB) applications.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
