MART-1 (Melanoma Antigen Recognized by T cells 1) or Melan-A is a newly identified melanocyte differentiation antigen recognized by autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
Seven other melanoma associated antigens recognized by autologous cytotoxic T cells include MAGE-1, MAGE-3, tyrosinase, gp100, gp75, BAGE-1 and GAGE-1.
Subcellular fractionation shows that MART-1 is present in melanosomes and endoplasmic reticulum.
Applications:Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Immunoprecipitation, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry.
Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions:Immunoprecipitation (Denatured verified): 2ug/mg protein lysate.
Use Protein A.
Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml for 2 hours at RT.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/paraffin): 1-2ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT.
Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 minutes followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
M2410-12 is preferred for this application.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:CaC1 melanoma cells and melanomas
