Application Notes
ELISA: 1:10000
WB: 1:500-1:2000
IHC: 1:200-1:1000
WB: 1:500-1:2000
IHC: 1:200-1:1000
Immunogen
Purified recombinant fragment of human EPCAM expressed in E. Coli
Subcellular Location
Lateral Cell Membrane. Cell Junction > Tight Junction. Co-localizes with CLDN7 at the lateral cell membrane and tight junction.
Tissue Specificity
Highly and selectively expressed by undifferentiated rather than differentiated embryonic stem cells (ESC). Levels rapidly diminish as soon as ESC's differentiate (at protein levels). Expressed in almost all epithelial cell membranes but not on mesodermal or neural cell membranes. Found on the surface of adenocarcinoma.
Preparation and Storage
Store at -20 degree C. Stable for 12 months from date of receipt.

Related Product Information for anti-EPCAM antibody
Description: This 9-exon gene encodes a carcinoma-associated antigen and is a member of a family that includes at least two type I membrane proteins. This antigen is expressed on most normal epithelial cells and gastrointestinal carcinomas and functions as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. The antigen is being used as a target for immunotherapy treatment of human carcinomas.
Function: May act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for providing immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. Plays a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. Up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC and cyclins A and E.
Subunit Structure: Monomer. Interacts with phosphorylated CLDN7.
Post-translational Modifications: Hyperglycosylated in carcinoma tissue as compared with autologous normal epithelia. Glycosylation at Asn-198 is crucial for protein stability.
Similarity: Belongs to the EPCAM family.

This antigen is expressed on most normal epithelial cells and gastrointestinal carcinomas and functions as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. The antigen is being used as a target for immunotherapy treatment of human carcinomas. Mutations in this gene result in congenital tufting enteropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

Product Notes
The EPCAM epcam (Catalog #AAA9602424) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The EPCAM Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's EPCAM can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), ELISA (EIA). ELISA: 1:10000 WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:200-1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EPCAM epcam for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EPCAM, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
