Cat#:PA-3486F;Product Name:Mouse Anti-Carcinoembryonic Antigen Antibody;Synonym:Carcinoembryonic antigen related cell adhesion molecule 5; Carcinoembryonic antigen; Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5; CD66e; CD66e antigen; CEA; CEACAM5; CEAM5_HUMAN; DKFZp781M2392; Meconium antigen 100;Background:Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion. It is normally produced during fetal development, but the production of CEA stops before birth. Therefore, it is not usually present in the blood of healthy adults, although levels are raised in heavy smokers. CEA is a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI)-cell surface anchored glycoprotein whose specialized sialofucosylated glycoforms serve as functional colon carcinoma L-selectin and E-selectin ligands, which may be critical to the metastatic dissemination of colon carcinoma cells.;Description:Mouse Anti-Carcinoembryonic Antigen Monoclonal Antibody;Host Species:Mouse;Clone#:9213;Isotype:IgG1;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and freeze at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles;Usage:For Lab Research Use Only;
