Leptin/Obesity [F-3]
Description Although there is substantial evidence that body weight is physiologically regulated, the molecular basis of obesity is unknown. Five single-gene mutations in mice that result in an obese phenotype have been identified. The first such recessive obesity mutation, the obese mutation (Ob), was identified in 1950. Mutation of Ob results in profound obesity and type II diabetes as part of a syndrome that resembles morbid obesity in humans. It has been postulated that the Ob gene product may function as a component of a signaling pathway in adipose tissue that functions to regulate body fat depot size. The cloning and sequence analysis of the mouse Ob gene and its human homolog have been described. Ob encodes an adipose tissue-specific mRNA with a highly conserved 167 amino acid open reading frame. The predicted amino acid sequence is 84% identical between human and mouse and has the features of a secreted protein. A nonsense mutation in codon 105 has been found in the original congenic C57B Host Mouse Application ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human

L-FABP (Liver Fatty Binding Protein) [F9]
Description Fatty acid-binding proteins, designated FABPs, are a family of homologous cytoplasmic proteins that are expressed in a highly tissue-specific manner and play an integral role in the balance between lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. FABPs mediate fatty acid (FA) and/or hydrophobic ligand uptake, transport and targeting within their respective tissues. The mechanisms underlying these actions can give rise to both passive diffusional uptake and protein-mediated transmembrane transport of FAs. FABPs are expressed in adipocytes (A-FABP), brain (B-FABP), epithelium (E-FABP, psoriasis-associated FABP, PA-FABP), striated muscle and heart (H-FABP, mammary-derived growth inhibitor or MDGI), intestine (I-FABP), liver (L-FABP), myelin (M-FABP) and testis (T-FABP). Liver-specific FABP (L-FABP) expression is modulated by developmental, hormonal, dietary and pharmacological factors, and is required for cholesterol synthesis and metabolism.

LIN28 [4F5G6]
Description LIN28 is a highly conserved, RNA-binding protein (RBP). It plays an important role as a translational enhancer, leading specific mRNAs to polysomes and therefore increasing the competence of protein synthesis. LIN28 was identified as a negative regulator of miRNA biogenesis and suggested to play a central role in blocking miRNA-mediated differentiation in stem cells and certain cancers. LIN28 is expressed by various undifferentiated embryonic cell types. Anti- LIN28 has been used as a sensitive marker for germ cell tumors. The positive staining of LIN28 in yolk sac tumors showed an advantage over OCT4, which is negative in these tumors. The nuclear reactivity of this antibody maybe observed in the myoepithelial cells of the salivary gland.

MAP2 [SMI52]
Description Microtubule-associated protein 2 or MAP2 is encoded by the Map2 (or Mtap2) gene. MAP2 belongs to the family of thermostable proteins associated with microtubules. It is an abundant neuronal cytoskeletal protein that binds to tubulin and stabilizes microtubules against depolymerization. It also has a stiffening effect on microtubules. MAP2 is shown to be essential for the development and maintenance of neuronal morphology. Three primary isoforms of MAP2, the high molecular weight MAP2a and MAP2b, and the low molecular weight MAP2c (resulting from alternate splicing of the MAP2 gene) have been identified in neurons. The low molecular weight isoform, MAP2c, is expressed in developing brain and is down-regulated during brain maturation, whereas the high molecular weight MAP2b is expressed in both developing and adult brain. The MAP2a appears only after brain maturation. All these forms bind to microtubules through a domain near the carboxyl terminus that contains either three or four simil Host Mouse Application ELISA, Immunocytochemistry (ICC),Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Mammalian, Xenopus

MTA1 [A11]
Description MTA1 (metastasis-associated protein 1) is a component of the NURD (for nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylation) complex, which is associated with ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling and histone deacetylase activity. MTA1 functions in conjunction with other components of NURD to mediate transcriptional repression as it facilitates the association of repressor molecules with the chromatin. Structurally, MTA1 contains a single SH3- binding motif and a zinc finger domain, along with a region similar to the co-repressor protein N-Cor. MTA1 is normally expressed at low levels in various tissues and is more highly expressed in testis. Overexpression of MTA1 correlates with tumor invasion and metastasis in various carcinomas including colorectal, gastrointestinal and breast carcinomas. Elevated MTA1 levels in these tumors appears to enhance the metastases to lymph nodes, increase mammary cell motility and potentiate growth, and it may, therefore, be an indicator for assessing the potent Host Mouse Application ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human

MUC3 [M3.1]
Description Specificity & Comments It recognizes a protein of HMW, identified as mucin 3 glycoprotein (MUC3). Its epitope localizes between aa SITTTE. This MAb shows no cross-reaction with human milk fat globule membranes, MUC1, or MUC2. MUC3 is distributed in colon and rectum, and is also present to a lesser extent in breast, lung and salivary gland tissues. The Mucins are a family of highly glycosylated, secreted proteins with a basic structure consisting of a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs) encoded by 60 base pairs (Mucin 1), 69 base pairs (Mucin 2) and 51 base pairs (Mucin 3). The number of repeats is highly polymorphic and varies among different alleles. Mucin 1 proteins are expressed as type I membrane proteins in addition to secreted forms. Mucin 1 is aberrantly expressed in epithelial tumors including breast carcinomas. Mucin 2 coats the epithelia of the intestines and airways and is associated with colonic tumors. Mucin 3 is a major component of various mucus gels and is broadl Host Mouse Application ELISA, Flow cytometry (FC), Immunocytochemistry (ICC),Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB) Reactivity Human
