Product Summary for Kallikrein 3/PSA Antibody (KLK3/801 + KLK3/1248) - IHC-Prediluted

Immunogen

Recombinant full-length human Kallikrein 3/PSA protein (Uniprot: P07288)

Localization

Cytoplasmic

Specificity

Recognizes a single protein of 33-34kDa, identified as the prostate specific antigen (PSA). This monoclonal antibody is highly specific to PSA and stains prostatic secretory and ductal epithelium in both normal and neoplastic tissues. PSA is a chymotrypsin-like serine protease (kallikrein family) exclusively produced by the prostate epithelium, and abundant in seminal fluid. PSA can be detected in the sera of patients with prostatic carcinoma. It is predominantly complexed to a liver-derived serine protease inhibitor, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (ACT). A higher proportion of serum PSA is complexed to ACT in prostate cancer than in benign prostate hyperplasia.

Clonality

Monoclonal

Host

Mouse

Isotype

IgG1 Kappa/IgG1 Kappa

Description

The prediluted antibody does not require any mixing, dilution, reconstitution, or titration; the antibody is ready-to-use and optimized for staining.
