CloneID: Mab55
Antigen Long Description: The antibody is the humanized version of the murine Mab 2.7.35.
Buffer Composition: PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Available Custom Conjugation Options: AP, HRP, Fluorescein, APC, PE, Biotin Type A, Biotin Type B, Streptavidin, FluoroProbes 647H, Atto488, APC/Cy7, PE/Cy7
Uniprot Accession No.: P05981
Specificity Statement: The antibody is specific for hepsin and cross-reacts with cynomolgus hepsin. Human hepsin is a Type II serine transmembrane protease and belongs to the trypsin family of serine proteases. Hepsin was identified by homology screening of a human liver cDNA library in 1988. It plays an important role in cell growth and maintenance of cell line morphology
Application Notes (Clone): The crystal structure of the Fab fragment of the antibody in complex with hHepsin was determined. The binding affinity of the Fab fragments to hHepsin was measured by surface plasmon resonance (Kd= 39.8 nM). The original antibody could inhibit hepsin. The original antibody could detect hepsin expressed in HEK293 cells by flow cytometry and confocal microscopy analysis (WO2011161189A1).
