Product Introduction:

vPair^TM antibodies represent a pair of fully characterized antibodies that recognize two different regions of a target protein. The product is developed by Abiocode to address whether the signal observed truly represents the protein of interest, an often encountered issue in antibody-based assays. The use of a pair of fully characterized vPair^TM antibodies in the same assay can validate signal specificity since vPair^TM antibodies recognize two independent epitopes of the same protein. Different sets of vPair^TM antibodies are developed at Abiocode to work with specific applications, including antibody arrays, Western blot, IP-Western, ChIP, IHC, and FACS.

Background:

Melanoma antigen recognized by T-cells 1 (MLANA) is a single-pass type III membrane protein involved in melanosome biogenesis by ensuring the stability of GPR143. MLANA  plays a vital role in the expression, stability, trafficking, and processing of melanocyte protein PMEL, which is critical to the formation of stage II melanosomes.

Other Names:

Melanoma antigen recognized by T-cells 1, MART1, Antigen LB39-AA, Antigen SK29-AA, Protein Melan-A

Source and Purity:

Rabbit polyclonal antibodies were produced by immunizing animals with GST-fusion proteins containing either the middle [MLANA (M) (R2493-1)] or the C-terminal [MLANA (C) (R2493-2)] region of human MLANA. Antibodies were purified by affinity purification using immunogen.
