Product Name :
PSCA (V71) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) is a 123 amino acid glycosylated protein that shares homology with the Thy-1/Ly-6 family of glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol GPI)-anchored cell surface antigens. The PSCA gene maps to chromosome 8q24.2 and transcripts are most prevalent in prostate and placenta. The gene encoding c-myc is also located on chromosome 8q and like PSCA, is overexpressed in a large number of prostate cancers. Transcripts for PSCA are also abundant in urothelial tumors, and levels of PSCA transcripts increase in confluent RT112 bladder carcinomas, suggesting that PSCA is a marker for urothelial and gastric tissue carcinogenesis. Among prostate cancer cell surface antigens, PSCA is expressed in over 80% of prostate carcinomas and correlates well to certain prostate cancer phenotypes such as prostate cancer bone metastates. Alternative Name :
PSCA; PRO232; Prostate stem cell antigen; UNQ206 Swiss-Prot :
O43653 Product :
1 mg/ml in DI water. Purification&Purity :
Synthetic peptide PSCA (V71). (Note: the amino acid sequence is proprietary). The purity is > 98%. Storage&Stability :
