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.
MART-1 is present in melanosomes and endoplasmic reticulum.
Applications:Suitable for use in Immunoprecipitation, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry.
Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions:Immunoprecipitation: Use Protein G; 2ug antibody/mg protein lysate
Western Blot: 1ug/ml for 2 hours at RT.
Immunohistochemistry (Frozen & formalin/paraffin): 1-2ug/ml for 30 min.
at RT.
Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 for 10-20 min., followed by cooling at RT for 20 min.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:CaC1 melanoma cells and melanomas.
