Mouse Monoclonal AFP antibody.
Biological Significance: Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AFP gene. Alpha-fetoprotein is a major plasma protein produced by the yolk sac and the liver during fetal life. The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and the alpha-fetoprotein and albumin genes are present in tandem on chromosome 4. Immunogen: Alpha-fetoprotein
Cross Reactivity: Specific for alpha-fetoprotein. In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing AFP are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as AFP may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results. Blood, Brain, Embryonic Tissue, Kidney, Liver, Lung, Muscle, Placenta, Uterus, Vascular tissues are correlated with this protein. Carcinoma, Hepatocellular, Liver Cirrhosis, Liver Diseases, Liver Neoplasms, Liver Neoplasms, Experimental, Lung Neoplasms, Neoplasm Metastasis, Neoplasms, Experimental, Nervous System Diseases, Stomach Neoplasms are some of the diseases may be linked to AFP antibody. AFP also interacts with the following gene(s): CEBPA, EFNA1, FOXA1, FOXA3, FOXM1, JUN, MYC, TP53, UBC, ZFHX3. The following patways have been known to be associated with this gene.
