Knockout Validated: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody (189508) [MAB13692]

Knockout Validated: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody (189508) [MAB13692]

Knockout Validated: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody (189508) [MAB13692] - Western blot shows lysates of HepG2 human liver carcinoma cells parental cell line and AFP knockout (KO) HepG2 cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.05 ug/mL of Mouse Anti-Human AFP Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB13692) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog #HAF018). Specific band was detected for AFP at approximately 74 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HepG2 cell line, but is not detectable in the knockout HepG2 cell line. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions.

Western Blot: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody (189508) [MAB13692]

Western Blot: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP Antibody (189508) [MAB13692] - Western blot shows lysates of undifferentiated and differentiated IBJ6 human induced pluripotent stem cells, and HepG2 and Hep3B cell lines. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.05 ug/mL of Mouse Anti-Human AFP Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB13692) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog #HAF018). Specific band was detected for AFP in the differentiated IBJ6 cells at approximately 74 kDa (as indicated), the HepG2 cells and Hep3B cells. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions.

Background: alpha-Fetoprotein/AFP

Alpha 1 Fetoprotein is a major plasma protein produced by the yolk sac and the liver during fetal life. Alpha fetoprotein expression in adults is often associated with hepatoma or teratoma. However, hereditary persistance of alpha-fetoprotein may also be found in individuals with no obvious pathology. The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and the alpha fetoprotein and albumin genes are present in tandem in the same transcriptional orientation on chromosome 4. Alpha fetoprotein is found in monomeric as well as dimeric and trimeric forms, and binds copper, nickel, fatty acids and bilirubin. The level of alpha fetoprotein in amniotic fluid is used to measure renal loss of protein to screen for spina bifida and anencephaly. Expression has been documented in human adrenal, liver, ovary, testis, and pancreas. ESTs have been isolated from normal human brain, liver/spleen, embryo and uterus tissue libraries.
