Applications for MUC5B Antibody (19.4E) - BSA Free

Application
Recommended Usage

ELISA

1:100-1:2000

Immunohistochemistry

1:10-1:500

Western Blot

1:100-1:2000
Application Notes
Western Blot; Bands in the high molecular weight range of 200kDa or above are expected for highly glycosylated proteins. Immunohistchemistry: Paraffin sections. Deglycosylating the tissue is critical to expose epitope. There are a number of deglycosylation protocols available and a discussion of these related to Mucin can be found in Cao, Y. et al. (1997)(see references).

Background: MUC5B

Mucins are a family of highly glycosylated proteins that are present on the surface of, and are secreted by, many glandular epithelial cells. Mucins provide a barrier between the luminal membranes of cells in the epithelium and their environment. For instance, in the digestive tract, the mucin barrier protects the epithelial cells from the action of proteolytic enzymes. These high molecular weight glycoproteins consist of a nonglobular protein backbone (apomucin) and many O-linked glycans. Salivary Mucin 5B proteins are some of the largest polypeptides, with molecular weights ranging from 14 - 40 x 10E3 kDa.

Alternate Names
