Product Overview
Clone 11F2 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes glutathione S-transferase Mu 1 (gene GSTM1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for flow cytometry, IHC, ICC/IF and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 25.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 26 kDa.
Glutathione S-transferase Mu 1 (GSTM1) is a mu-class GST that conjugates glutathione to electrophilic carcinogens, drugs and products of oxidative stress. A common deletion polymorphism leaves many people without GSTM1 activity, so it is widely studied in pharmacogenetics, xenobiotic metabolism and susceptibility to environmental toxins.

Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of human GSTM1. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 70.6% and 73.5%, respectively.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places glutathione S-transferase Mu 1 in the cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Liver (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
