Melanoma Marker (MART-1 + gp100)(DT101+ BC199 + HMB45) , Biotin conjugate , 0.1mg / mL
This antibody cocktail recognizes two melanoma-specific proteins , which include MART-1 and gp100. MART-1 is a newly identified melanocyte differentiation antigen recognized by autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Function of gp100 is not known but it is reported to be a useful marker for melanocytes and melanomas. A cocktail of these two markers is sensitive for labeling formalin-fixed , paraffin-embedded melanomas and other tumors showing melanocytic differentiation.
